The exact profile depends on the season and batch, but it is usually floral, fresh and lightly herbal, with clear sweetness and sometimes a delicate spicy note.
In this guide
With tea and infusions
Add after the drink has cooled slightly. It pairs well with black tea, mint, chamomile and linden blossom infusion.
On bread, toast and rolls
A simple pairing that clearly shows the variety. Excellent with butter, brioche or light bread.
With porridge, yoghurt and curd cheese
Pair with apple, pear, nuts and cinnamon. It adds both sweetness and aroma.
With pancakes, fritters and waffles
Use a thin layer instead of a heavy cream. Add it to the finished dish to retain the aroma.
In light desserts
Suitable for baked apples, yoghurt cream, fruit mousse and chilled cheesecake.
In sauces and marinades
Combine with mustard, olive oil and lemon. Use sparingly in marinades because honey caramelises quickly.
With cheese and for tasting
Pairs with curd cheese, goat cheese and mild aged cheeses.
What to keep in mind
- Avoid overheating if you want a clear aroma.
- Do not overpower it with very strong spices.
- Crystallisation is natural and not a sign of lower quality.
- Store away from sunlight and heat.
Storage
Keep honey in a dry, dark and cool place. Close the jar tightly after use. Natural crystallisation does not mean a loss of quality.
