Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Bring chicken broth to a boil in a large saucepan. Add carrots and water. Bring to a boil again, reduce heat and cover. Simmer for 25 minutes. Drain carrots; reserve cooking liquid.
Saute onions and squash in melted butter over medium heat until onions are translucent, about 15 minutes. Add carrots and remaining ingredients. Cook an additional 5 minutes.
Pour the mixture into a food processor and puree. If too thick, add a little of the carrot cooking liquid until mixture is the consistency of mashed potatoes.
Serves 6.
