So what do you make with honey?
Do you put it in your hot tea,
or in yogurt or on granola?
Maybe as a topping for your bisquit or toast?
Hmmmm. What to do......?

| I think I found the perfect recipe for a hot summer day with a fresh batch of honey. |
Greek Spiced Orange and Honey Sorbet*
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup clover honey
2 tablespoons finely grated orange peel
1 tablespoon chopped peeled fresh ginger
2 whole star anise or cardamom pods
2 whole cloves
1 small bay leaf, preferably fresh
2 cups chilled fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Combine first 8 ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Bring to boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Boil until syrup is thick and mixture is reduced to 2 cups, about 12 minutes. Discard bay leaf; cool syrup.
Strain syrup into medium bowl. Add orange juice and lemon juice. Transfer to ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer sorbet to container, cover, and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours and up to 3 days.

I make Honey Butter with honey and real butter. Yum!
ReplyDeleteThe sorbet looks wonderful!
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...good! Fabulous photos too.
ReplyDeleteThat sorbet looks delish and perfect for the remainder of the hot summer days!
ReplyDeleteI use honey in my greek yogurt and on peanut butter. I'm not a big fan of peanut butter unless it's mixed with chocolate, yet I find it a lot more tolerable with a little honey drizzled over it.
I make sweet tea with honey. Thanks for sharing. Richard at My Old Historic House.

ReplyDeleteMy kids are peanut butter & honey fiends, and sometimes just honey bread fiends. I like my honey in hot water with a squeeze of lemon ( a big squeeze) and a few slices of fresh ginger. I live on it in the Winter!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than biscuits and honey...but the sorbet looks seriously good!
ReplyDeleteI saw someone else talking about this honey. I love peanut butter and honey sandwiches. yum
