Did you know that May 4th – May 10th is the UK’s National Honey Week? Used in beauty treatments, as an antiseptic, and by the Romans to pay their taxes (!) it is also delicious on bread, in yogurt, in cakes as a sugar substitute, and in sauces for savoury dishes, like this delicious pak choi, tofu and honey stir fry.
How do you like your honey?
Any apiarists out there?
And have you seen many bees yet this year?
