Little Thumbs Up March 2016: Honey

Source

It's HONEY!

Hello, everyone! Welcome to the "Little Thumbs Up" event for March 2016! A big THANK YOU to Zoe and Doreen for the opportunity to host this month's event with the theme HONEY. :)

When we talk about honey, these come to mind: raw honey, processed honey, organic honey, etc. Raw honey has many nutritional benefits: antibacterial and antiseptic, doesn't cause blood sugar to spike, high in antioxidants (dark honey), improves digestion, good for skin, etc. I learn that raw honey should be eaten raw and not in cooking and baking because heat causes honey to lose its nutritional properties.

So, when it comes to cooking and baking, I personally think that it's good enough to use processed honey, but that's just my opinion. Feel free to use any kind of honey that you like. :)

Why Honey?

Honey is chosen as the theme because it's a very versatile ingredient. I believe most of us stock at least one bottle of honey in our pantry. I have used honey in some recipes on my blog:
