Honey Tips
Honey Is Magic
In the days before biology and botany were understood, people thought it was a special kind of magic that turned flower nectar into honey.
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 °.
In a medium saucepan combine honey and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and whisk in lemon juice, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon.
Peel sweet potatoes. Cut in half crosswise and then cut each half into 3 or 4 wedges, depending on size of potato. Place in a baking pan in a single layer. Pour half of the honey mixture over the potatoes. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn potatoes over and pour remaining syrup over potatoes. Bake for another 20 minutes. Turn potatoes again, spooning any sauce in the bottom of pan over the potatoes, and bake for 10 more minutes.
