What is the shelf life for raw honey made in Germany?
Raw honey is one of the few foods that has this ability to remain edible years after you bring it home. In fact, honey that was produced thousands of years old has been found to have tasted just as fresh and sweet as it did when it was first made. Honey is a sugar product. Sugar is hygroscopic that contains very little water in its natural state. A hygroscopic product can also soak in water if not sealed. Honey in its natural form has very low moisture, very few bacteria or microorganisms can survive in an environment like that. This is a very important feature in raw honey’s longevity. This inhospitable environment means that organisms can’t survive long enough within the jar of honey to have the chance to spoil.
Does honey butter need to be refrigerated?
So – we store our honey butter in the fridge. To get around the problem stiffness, I developed a recipe for Whipped Honey Butter, using honey, butter, and heavy cream. It is soft enough to spread straight out of the refrigerator.
How do you store honey butter?
Once the butter has hardened, you can place the pieces in a plastic bag for storage. Then as you need it, you can take out as many portions of the honey butter as you’d like. Roll slightly softened butter into a log, about 1-inch in diameter. Then wrap the log in piece of plastic wrap and wrap it up tight, twisting the ends to seal.
