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
Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add sausage, fennel, onion and carrots. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add water, honey, lentils, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered about 25 minutes or until lentils have softened. Stir in vinegar. (If soup thickens too much add some chicken broth.)
