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

Brown chops on each side, over medium heat. Pour off fat. Add tomatoes, honey and basil to the pan. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
