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

Melt butter and oil over medium-high heat in a deep saucepan. Place scallions and mushrooms in pan. Sauté until mushrooms begin to brown and their liquid is evaporated.
Blend in sherry and boil until evaporated. Stir in honey and broth. Simmer for 15 minutes. Season to taste.
