Honey Tips
Honey Is One of the Oldest Foods
Honey is one of the oldest foods in existence. It was found in the tomb of King Tut and was still edible since honey never spoils.
Directions
In a large pot heat oil and butter. Add all vegetables and saute for 10 minutes. Add water and bring to a boil. Cover pot, reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a food processor. Pulse on and off until mixture is smooth. Add to water in pot and stir until combined. Bring back to a boil, reduce heat and mix in remaining ingredients. Simmer without boiling for an additional 10 minutes, stirring often.
