Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 I believe raw Honey is unpasterized honey, straight from the honey comb. Byrant should be able to answer this if im wrong or in more detail. I buy my honey from a beekeeper not in the stores, its unpasturized.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 Raw honey is honey that hasn't been filtered, heated, pasteurized or processed. I get it at health food stores or some supermarkets here but if you can't get it in stores, google for raw honey and UK and you will find online sources.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 That's it in a nutshell. We used to hand extract. Think of a giant ice cream maker but inside instead of a mixer were racks to hold the the honeycombs. We'd uncap i.e. cut off the ends of the comb, put them in the extractor and then begin to spin it. The honey would be expelled and cover the sides of the barrel and then would flow down and collect in the bottom. Stop spinning and just put the extract in bottles and you have raw honey. We used to gross filter - using sterilzed pantyhose legs - to get the larger chunks out - so close but not quite raw. Mmmmm. Commercially the process is the same but much larger and machine run. Commonly the honey would be " hot pressed " since it yielded more in shorter time. Heat processing, i.e. pasteurizing it, guaranteed the " safety " but any heat does change the quality and blending across areas and through the season gives a " blended " product, sorta like cheap wine. ly, provided the process and everything else is clean and done properly, so called raw honey is probably as safe or safer than the commercial processing. > I believe raw Honey is unpasterized honey, straight from the honey > comb.

Thanks...Kel whole wheat tortillas I forgot who posted the recipe for whole wheat tortillas recently, but I made them for my family this week and they loved them so much that they asked me not to buy the regular ones again! So thank you so much. And can anyone tell me what raw honey is please? We probably have a different term for it in the UK, and I would like to work out what it is so I can have it too.- CarolineReminder: The South Beach Diet is not low-carb. Nor is it low-fat.
