Notes about this book

    Re: mjes note -- the specified honey variety could and IMO should be added via EYB Note by an indexer ("Recipe suggests clover honey." etc.). Deborah is the staffer to ask about that.

    Page 36 of this cookbook has one of the best cheese and honey pairings list that I've found and it worth owning for this and the descriptions of the honey varietals. However, I wish this cookbook followed The Asheville Bee Charmer Cookbook where the preferred honey varietal is specified in the recipe. Here the preferred varietal is specified in an introduction to the recipe, therefore the recipes are indexed with a generic "honey".

Publishers Text

Honey is a lot like olive oil, how do you know what type to select from the store shelf? Are all honey bears created equal? What makes one variety of honey different from another? Which is better for baking and which is best for savoury dishes? Why is one darker than another in colour, what does that mean? All these questions and more will be answered in Taste of Honey. Veteran cookbook author, Marie Simmons, helps readers understand the life of a bee, and how the territory of its habitat influences both the color and flavor of the honey they produce. Then she explains how these flavor profiles are best paired with certain ingredients in over 60 simple, delicious recipes such as: Honey French Toast with Peaches with Honey and Mint, Salmon with Honey, Miso and Ginger Glaze, Pear, Stilton and Bacon Salad with Honey Dressing and Honey Glazed Pecans, Honey Pear Tart with Honey Butter Sauce.
