questions re honey & vinegar.

Can you store honey ? How long for ? And is there anywhere to bulk buy a lot of vinegar? What kind of places have it ? TY :D

Comments

  • For vinegar try chinese supermarkets or places like Macro/Netto.

    Not sure about storing honey, it never lasts that long in our house!

    As long as you only put clean utensils into the jar of honey, and don't contaminate it, it'll last indefinately. It does tend to crystallise over time if you leave it out, but it isn't a bad thing, just a change in texture.

    ok ta. SO I can buy jars and store them then? TY
  • If your honey does crystallise, just stand the jar in a bowl of hot water, it'll become clear again.

    Honey never goes off. Too high in sugar. They've even found 3000 year old honey in Egypt that was edible (prob. looked hideous)
