INGREDIENTS Crystallization is a natural phenomenon not related to the quality of the honey and does not cause any changes in its' nutritional value. A crystallized honey is neither adulterated nor damaged. It can be liquidated easily if placed in a bain -mari with hot water 40 ° Celsius LEGAL DISCLAIMER Honey tends to crystallize. At first crystals are formed at the bottom and the walls of the container. New crystals are added, which generally give an unpleasant image to honey. Crystallization also makes it awkward. Crystallized honey does not lose its properties. However, crystallization results in an uneven distribution of moisture resulting in uncrystallised honey having more moisture (over 20-21%) and sometimes leading to fermentation. If your honey crystallizes / sweetens, do not worry! Instead you should be happy to have bought an excellent honey. You can restore it to its original state by putting it in a bian-marie. Place the jar with your honey in a boiling pot and in a few seconds your honey will return to its original fluidity. See more
