How do you keep your dandelion honey from crystallizing
@rosesallotmentadventures93658 ай бұрын
It can eventually crystallise, ours started to once opened after a good few months of being opened. You can avoid this by using small jars and hence using up the honey before it has a chance to crystallise or, as I did, stand the jar which had started to crystallise, in hot water. I will say that after about 6 months of being open, the only crystallisation is at the thin layer around the edge at the top, not in the bulk of the honey. This product crystallises a lot less than bees honey
