How to preserve honey (VIDEO)

Honey is very easy to store because it's a naturally antibacterial food. However, to keep it at its best, there are a few simple rules:

1. Keep it in a cool, dry place

• Ideal: between the 10°C and 20°C
• Avoid heat sources (stoves, radiators)

2. No refrigerator

• The cold accelerates the crystallization (becomes hard and grainy)
• It's not dangerous, but it changes the consistency

3. Close the glass jar tightly

• The ideal packaging for honey is a glass jar
• The closure must be complete because honey easily absorbs moisture and odors.
• Always use a well-sealed container (glass is better)

4. Keep it away from light

• Direct light can slowly alter its quality and aroma
