Have you ever tried raw honey?
All types of honey begin with pure, natural raw honey. It's the best honey to eat or drink for nutritional purposes, although it can change its appearance when extracted from its frame.
It is not always possible to buy raw honey from a local beekeeper. However, there are plenty of local farmer's markets to shop at.

That, too, is not always possible. How do you get it and which one to choose, whether to buy from a store or a store? They can look very different.
Sometimes the beekeeper would force him to remove the pollen or propolis particles to make them look lighter. However, real raw honey likely contains these beneficial ingredients, and this is the best way to buy it and eat it. Don't be put off if you see sediment in the pot. It's still best to find a local beekeeper ASAP.
Once the raw honey is removed from the honeycomb frame, it will most likely change its appearance. What was once a golden liquid often turns into something that looks cloudy and sometimes quite hard, not liquid or golden at all!
There are exceptions: the higher the fructose content, the more likely it is to look runny. But they're not necessarily the best. Let's look at the different types of raw honey so you can better understand them.
Some types of honey crystallize and have an almost moist sugar effect. There is nothing to worry about. It just means it has higher glucose to fructose ratio. This is probably the best type of honey to hand out.
Others are labelled with smoothies or cream. Often, some honey producers do this on purpose. A little crystallized honey is added to more liquid honey and whipped. Many people prefer the texture of this type of honey.
Mono-floral, monovarietal or artisanal is the names for the type of raw honey, mainly made from a single source of nectar. A rare type of honey is most commonly made from a source of nectar greater than 51%.
Multifloral is the type of honey you're most likely to see on the shelves. This is also known as a type of wildflower honey because the bees collect nectar from various plants and flowers. However, be careful and look for a label that says it is 100% pure honey.
The most surprising thing is that honey doesn't always taste sweet! There are many types of honey, and yes, most of them are sweet. A prime example of a type of honey that isn't, however, is one that hides its own name!
Strawberry honey, now one would think it would taste like ripe, sweet strawberries by the name. You would be wrong; This type of raw honey is made from the nectar of flowers that look more than strawberries but actually taste quite bitter and smoky!
No matter what type of raw honey you choose, choose a good quality one and eat or drink it every day to enjoy and enjoy.
