Honey Tips

How Honey is Made

To make honey, bees drop the collected nectar into the honeycomb and then evaporate it by fanning their wings.

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a hard ball stage (250 degrees to 266 degrees F), a rolling boil over medium heat and stir constantly with a wooden spoon for 10 minutes, until cashews are golden. If the honey starts to get too deep in color, remove it because it is coming close to burning.
Pour mixture onto a piece of aluminum foil and allow to cool completely.
When cooled, break the brittle into pieces and store chilled in an airtight container. Will keep for 2 weeks.
Yields: 1 cup
