Honey Tips

Honey Flavors and Colors

Honey has different flavors and colors, depending on the location and kinds of flowers the bees visit. Climatic conditions of the area also influence its flavor and color.

Directions

In a bowl mix soy sauce with sesame oil, garlic, honey and crushed red pepper. Stir in beef, cover and marinate for 20 minutes.
Heat a heavy skillet on high. Add 1 Tablespoon oil and stir-fry ginger until brown, about 45 seconds. Add the mushrooms and cook about 2 minutes.
Add another 1 Tablespoon oil and stir-fry beef with marinade until just brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer mixture to a plate. Set aside.
In the same pan add remaining oil. Saute broccoli and red bell pepper for 2 minutes on high. Cover and cook the vegetables for about 7 minutes. Add beef mixture to vegetable mixture. Stir-fry over high to heat through for about 1 minute. Serve over rice.
