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 medium pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened without browning
- Add pumpkin puree to the pan and stir for 1-2 minutes.
- Stir in the rice and cook for a minute or two them add enough chicken stock to cover the rice
- Continue adding ½-1 cup of stock at a time as it gets absorbed, stirring occasionally
- Once the rice is cooked and stock is absorbed, add in seasonings and honey (salt and pepper) to taste
- Add in chopped sage leaves and stir
- Serve with a drizzle of honey on top and pumpkin seeds (optional)
