Honey Tips

Honey Flavors and Colors

Honey has different flavors and colors, depending on the location and kinds of flowers the bees visit. Climatic conditions of the area also influence its flavor and color.

Directions

Trim leeks of outer leaves leaving white and pale parts only. Halve each leek lengthwise. Run under cold water to clean out any dirt. Slice cleaned leeks on a diagonal into 1/4 inch thick slices.

Heat oil in a large skillet. Add leeks and saute until they begin to brown. Stir in remaining ingredients. Simmer, stirring until thickened about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
Yields: about 1 cup
