How Honey Is Created

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

Directions

Place all ingredients in a medium pot. Cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a simmer. Reduce heat, cover and cook for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove cover. Reduce heat to very low and cook for 45 to 50 minutes stirring often until thickened.
