The Earthy Sweetness of Truffle Honey

 

Tuscanyumbria_080 For those of you who have ordered cheese at Otto (part of the Molto Mario chain here in NYC), you know about the wonders of truffle honey.  It's nothing short of outrageously addictive.  Sweet, fragrant honey is laced with chopped black truffle, creating a balance of earthiness and sweetness that explodes in your mouth with flavor.

     While thinking about making a cheese plate recently, I needed to come up with a few quick condiments to go along with the cheeses.  I immediately began to think about the truffle honey I enjoyed so much in Italy, but I'm unfortunately out of it and haven't tracked down replacements for the pantry.

And now a Bee-t about honeybees

   Honeybees probably originated some forty million years ago in Africa spreading from southern Africa to Europe and Asia. They were brought into the Americas by entrepreneurial settlers in the early 17 century.
In 1956, a few laboratory swarms of African bees were released into the Brazilian wild, by accident. Initially, there were a few fatal incidents, until the beekeepers quickly learnt how to handle the African bee. Today Brazil and a few other Latin American countries have a thriving beekeeping industry. The African bee mated with the local bee and a new name was coined for the species – the Africanized bee.

Pollen

    Male cells of flowers, responsible for the reproduction of plants, are called pollen. Flowers are the very special part of a plant as they provide multifaceted roles ( eg. Bach flower remedies). Nature, as well as providing for the perpetuity of plants, also provides the protein source for honeybee nutrition. It could be said that without pollen, there would be no honeybee colonies, no wax, no royal jelly and no brood.

Propolis

The word “propolis” comes from two Greek words:”pro” which means “before” and “polis” which means “city”. Very simply said, propolis is the material made by bees to protect their home and the brood. Little wonder that it is called “Russian penicillin”
Bees collect propolis from various plant sources, and then mix the original plant resin with beeswax and beta-glucosidase which they secrete during propolis collection. The colour and fragrance of the raw material depend directly on the plant sources that the bees use and the mixture of the material collected.

Why raw honey?

By Richard Booth
Honey in its natural raw state contains 2 predominant natural sugars (Fructose and Glucose), 11 enzymes, 14 minerals, 21 amino acids, all the vitamins that nutritionists consider necessary for health, A, D, K, Rutin, Nicotinic Acid, B vitamins, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Niacin, Panthothenic acid, Pyridoxine and Biotin as well as Ascorbic Acid (Vit. C).
Honey Processing
Most honey sold today has been commercially processed, resulting in enzymes (which help digestion) and vitamins, being destroyed and protein (pollen) being removed. This processing involves heating and filtering through a cloth or fine filter paper. The end product will remain in a liquid state for a long period of time. When most processed honey granulates, crystals begin to form at the bottom of the jar, moving upwards (a sure sign of refined and processed product, despite the label “Pure” Honey).

Royal Jelly

Rich, velvety, milky white and opalescent liquid with a pungent odour and a characteristic sour flavour  that we know as royal jelly bees produce for a single reason to extend the life of queen bee, has been revered for centuries for its invigorating and rejuvenating   properties. The life span of worker bee equalling to a few weeks compares unfavourably to the life span of a queen bee (a few years) and not to mention its reproductive capability.

How Effective Is Honey In Treating Resistant Wounds?


By Brian McCurdy, Associate Editor
Can the ancient remedy of honey make an impact in treating wounds that are resistant to traditional antibiotics? Two articles, published recently in Ostomy Wound Management and in the Journal of Applied Microbiology, suggest honey may show some promise in wound healing.
The Journal of Applied Microbiology study involved 18 strains of MRSA and seven strains of vancomycin-sensitive enterococci (VSE), which were isolated from infected wounds. Researchers established their sensitivity to two natural honeys of median levels of antibacterial activity and compared that with an artificial honey solution.

Honey-Based Dressings: Can They Have An Impact For Diabetic Foot Ulcers?

 
 
By Wendy Tyrrell MEd, DPodM, MChS, and Rose A. Cooper, PhD
     Honey is an ancient wound remedy that is reappearing in clinical practice in developed countries. The availability of licensed wound care products in Europe, New Zealand and Australia is prompting healthcare practitioners in conventional medicine to consider the use of honey within their treatment armamentarium. Ulcer remedies such as honey are necessary as the prevalence of diabetes rises.
     The American Diabetes Association has estimated that about 7 percent of the population had diabetes.1 It is an increasing problem that has serious implications and a high degree of morbidity. In 2005, 1.5 million new cases in the U.S. were diagnosed in people over 20 years of age.
     Foot ulcers are a frequent and complex complication in diabetes and researchers have estimated the prevalence of foot ulceration in this population to be approximately 6 percent.2 Diabetic foot ulcers are often present for long periods of time and have poor healing rates.3 These poor healing rates lead to the worst case scenario — amputation — and diabetes remains the most common cause of lower extremity amputation in the Western world.

A Criminal Defense "Honey" of a Deal

Honey%20Pic.jpg

By THE GASPER LAW GROUP
Although the Gasper Law Group specializes in Criminal Defense and Divorce and Family Law, I have worked in varied fields of law with a multitude of clients. While my past clients may have varied, one thing remained constant, my attitude to that client's case and my approach to opposing counsel. You see, I have one motto in my approach with opposing counsel, whether that be a district attorney or a private attorney, and that motto is, "you catch more bees with honey than you do with vinegar." This motto has served me well, both in private practice and in the government sector and has helped me secure the best deal for my client.

Advantages of Eating Honey
Honey, one of the natural syrups, contains glucose, fructose, vitamins, and minerals. It offers a large number of benefits. Honey was considered good for health in ancient times, and the story continues till today even after scientific intervention—researchers also accepted its value and they endorsed its use in various ways. There is no doubt that eating honey is beneficial, but sometimes it can also be good if used as conditioner or moisturizer. Following are few of the advantages of eating honey:

The Honey Drippers

The Honey Drippers

       Extracted the first lot of honey and it was fairly labour intensive. Would love an extractor, but can't justify the cost. However the next extraction, due this week should be better, this time I'll have my technique down pat. The taste of the unfiltered honey is exquisite and with all the local pollen in it I hope it assists with inoculation and my hayfever is 'organically' treated. As the bees have been on apple blossom for some time I like to think it tastes like it. Though I've never chewed on blossoms it has a really light sweet taste that's great in tea, in bread, on bread, on just about anything come to mention it.
