Making Creamed Honey - Whip it good!

[@CRETEJOE]

I've looked at around six different videos and although this does not show making the seed, the rest of it is excellent. The only one I've found that adds the seed to already crystallized honey not running honey. Thanks John

[@shanegabbard6861]

You make your seed creamed honey out of crystallized honey and a morter and pestle...gring it till it's creamed then add to regular honey..%10 ratio..

[@ohfullers]

Thanks for stopping by Fuller Farm

[@KeepingItDutch]

Looks great, How old was that honey when it started to crystallizing?

[@ohfullers]

+Homesteading With Dutch This is honey that we harvested in September and it started crystalizing in December. All raw honeys will crystalize. Some varieties crystalize faster than others.

[@KeepingItDutch]

+Fuller Farm awe good info man thanks

[@plhartley]

So interesting! I actually bought some creamed honey for storage about 2 yrs. ago. Silly me I thought it was just whipped. Thank you for the explanation/tutorial. My question is can I use it in making my bread etc. just like any other honey in a recipe? I now want to open one of my containers and make creamed honey!!

[@ohfullers]

I would think you could use it to make bread as well but we have never used creamed honey. Worth a try!

[@plhartley]

I will try it, thanks! It is only a couple of tablespoons.

[@valforrest1790]

Thanks for

[@Kianistani]

This is awesome. I have had creamed honey and it is delicious but I thought it’s just hunny that has been whipped. But this is so interesting. I would love to know the science behind it how the seed honey Ken dictate how the remainder of the honey crystallises. Fascinating .

[@ohfullers]

It is amazing and useful that they copy the crystal structure from the seed honey

[@Edwoodb3]

Great video. One question, with the 90% non-creamed honey, does it need to begin the crystallization process by itself before you add the 10% creamed honey? Or can I just use 90% fresh non-creamed honey and forgo the warm water bath process?

[@ohfullers]

You should be able to use fresh non-creamed honey and it will then crystallize based on the structure in the already creamed honey.

[@Edwoodb3]

@@ohfullers Cheers.

[@aldenpoon7203]

Hello, I bought a glass of creamy honey and it turns back runny, is it normal? Should I store it in the fridge?

[@maryhepburn6150]

How long will it hold in the creamed state? Will it eventually form large crystals?

[@mrsseasea]

It will hold for a very long time in a cream state.

[@ohfullers]

Should stay creamed forever because it's crystallized already

[@jdtvproductions9449]

Absolutely love your videos! I’m curious if I actually need to have crystallized honey or if I can just use honey that isn’t crystallized. TIA!

[@ohfullers]

Thanks! You just need to have creamed honey to use as starter so it can mirror the same crystal structure.

[@5DNRG]

Yes, just smash the crystallized honey (45+ mins w mortar & pestle) to cream it.

[@Coldstreamer17]

So, to make creamed honey, you need to have creamed honey..?

[@joe-no7nz]

No

[@5DNRG]

Not necessarily...you can start creamed honey by smashing crystallized honey with a mortar & pestle (45+mins). That's why it costs more...labor intensive work.

[@moonorchid9242]

It’s just the easy way. Like sourdough, you can make your own starter, or you can use someone else’s starter to jumpstart your own

[@ohfullers]

easier and quicker with crystallized honey

[@MrAvni2011]

Why are you using plastic and metal spoon and form???

[@bobkowalski7655]

About to convert all the honey we have at home into creamed honey, wish me luck.

[@ohfullers]

Enjoy!! Let me know how it turns out!

[@aljofischbeck1]

Please forgive me, I'm sure these are dumb questions. So now can you use your finished cream honey to fix new Honey you get from your bees that is crystallizing? Or is that original bass that you used as a specialty specifically for fixing crystallized honey?

[@ohfullers]

+julie fischbeck Yes, very similar to bread dough starter that you keep using we can now use the creamed honey we made to seed other raw honey that we harvest.

[@TheRealBatCave]

Does creamed honey stay like this over time or will it re harden? And is the shelf life the same?

[@ohfullers]

As far as I know it stays like this because it's already crystallized so it can't form larger crystals.

[@TheRealBatCave]

@@ohfullers thnx

[@chipblock2854]

Real basic question, do you use creamed honey in the same way as noncrystalized honey? If you micro wave it will it separate out to normal honey? Thanks!

[@ohfullers]

I am only guessing as I've never tried but creamed honey is crystalized honey, just smaller crystals. My guess is that if you warmed it enough those small crystals would dissolve just like larger crystals and you would have "liquid" honey.

[@jeanriverton6965]

I like to use liquid honey in teas, sauces, marinades and the like and creamed honey on bread.

[@yohanawu7347]

why I never see any of my honey crystalized? is it because the weather is too hot? I live in tropical.

[@ohfullers]

Maybe you just eat it too quick : ). Really interesting. Maybe it's the heat. Eventually all honey should crystalize.

[@24get24give]

I've never had it happen either, and I live in Francisco, so that can't be it!, I guess it must be a raw honey thing, I rarely buy it, I have toddlers

[@JenMckoy61]

I live in Jamaica now, never seen our honey crystallized. Whilst in the UK honey crystallize easily. I think it's a temperature thing.

[@peterfletcher8951]

@@JenMckoy61 It also depends on what kind of nectar/flower source it came from.

[@twins2936]

[@crude4u1948]

Once you make your jar of creamed honey, can you use the new creamed honey to make more creamed honey?

[@ohfullers]

Yes, you are forcing the honey to crystallize, following the pattern of the seed honey.

[@jensingerlady]

I’m going to try it, thanks!

[@ohfullers]

[@matimaui]

[@ohfullers]

It shouldn't. It's already crystallized

[@gde-to-kogda-to6130]

And what temperature did you warm up?

[@ohfullers]

I don't go over 109 F with raw honey

[@24get24give]

how cool does the honey havr to be to not melt the seed crystals?

[@ohfullers]

109 degrees is what we use

[@cristalbuckner8255]

subbed! love the bunny and honey videos

[@ohfullers]

thanks so much!

[@essemsween818]

Are you saying that it will never crystalize if you make it into creamed honey? And may I ask, how do you get the 'Seed' honey? How was that original seed created? ( or THE original Seed, ) Thank you.

[@essemsween818]

p.s Forgot to say, New Subscriber, Dutch sent me. 😃

[@ohfullers]

Great questions and thanks for subing. We love Dutch's channel too. Creamed honey is actually crystallized honey but much smaller crystals. The crystals are so small that the texture is silky smoothe. So since it's already crystallizied it will not get the larger crystals. Creamed honey from the store will work as seed. I don't know all the details on how to make it to begin with but I understand they start with regular crystallized honey and then they destroy or crush those crystals into the smaller crystals that make creamed honey..

[@essemsween818]

Yes, I got the bit about the smaller crystals from the video (you explained it really well). And although you can return crystallized honey back to runny I'm guessing that after a period of time that will re-crystallize. I guess I expected there to be a 'mechanical' rather than a 'chemical' explanation for developing the original seed honey. Now that throws up a load of new questions like; if you use a seed from the store or even just from a different hive, in a new area, does that alter the flavour of the honey you're "Creaming". Or, does creaming create a different flavour profile anyway?

[@ohfullers]

Yes, you are exactly right. It definitely changes the flavour profile even with the 1 to 10 ratio. It's worth finding a creamed honey you really like. You can then use the creamed honey you make to make more. Once crystalized it will always re-crystallize so the secret is to control it so it follows the pattern of the smaller crystal. I know you can make your own seed by crushing the crystals but don't know all the steps or how difficult. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creamed_honey

Everybody who wants to know how to make without seed honey needs to read the response comment from outsider00000 in his comment to braaidude under this video.

[@Jay22222]

@@PrestonCovell A whipping tool? If you want to sell a product that solves a problem that doesn’t exist, I’ve found your mark My lord what on earth is a whipping tool, what are you on about. You could use your hands or a stick if you wanted to (For the process in this video) provided that you’re using some already creamed honey as a “starter” to “seed” a desirable Crystal size and shape. Sugars like to form crystals with a larger more 90 degree/square crystal shape. I’m sure there’s a word for that type of crystal development but I don’t know it. In a fairly labour intensive process you can wait for regular honey to crystallise like it is in the beginning of the video, do not warm it, then use a mortar and pestle or similar to grind the crystals and it will tend to knock off the corners and create a far smoother, creamier and runnier crystalline honey. You will probably have a hard time creating a very even and extremely smooth texture as I’m sure this is done mechanically in commercial operations You will then be able to use it in the future to skip the intense shoulder workout that starting from scratch takes. I desperately hope you weren’t just referring to a honey spoon/dipper (A wooden tool with a handle down to a ball shaped rounded head with groves to hold then serve honey?) If that is what you meant please look up what they’re for and how they’re used.

[@nixonsmateruby1]

No one tells you but just leave a jar of honey in a cool place. It will set. In the UK we call it set honey

[@ohfullers]

That's what we call crystallized honey. Some Honey producers have heated storage so their honey does not crystallize.

[@Epona506]

Also the crystals are larger in our UK set honey, this keeps the crystals smaller so upgradable like soft butter. I have quite a lot of osr honey which as you probably know sets solid? I'm wondering if this creamed method would keep my honey nice and spreadable for my customers?

We have never done it but if you don't want to buy creamed honey you are supposed to crush crystallized honey in a food processor or mortar and pestle to create your own seed.

[@scratchmadehomestead9343]

Fuller Farm do you have to start with crystallized honey to cream? Our honey is only a couple months old.

[@ohfullers]

No, the honey you mix with the seed does not have to be crystallized. We have tried it both ways. I do feel like the crystalized honey we used ended up a little bit thicker but maybe I am imagining things. You can also flavor creamed honey. We made a batch of lavender infused creamed honey that has been our favorite.
