How to Use Saffron Honey
This honey is incredibly versatile. Here are a few simple ways to enjoy it:
- Breakfast: Drizzle it over yogurt, oatmeal, or a warm bowl of granola.

Ingridents:
1 cup honey
1 pinch Lemonfair saffron, ground with mortar & pestle
Directions
1. Grind the Saffron: Crush your saffron threads into a fine powder. This helps the color and flavor spread evenly through the honey.
2. Warm the Honey: Pour the honey into a small pot over low heat. You want it warm, but be careful not to let it boil.
3. Mix and Steep: Stir in the ground saffron. Keep stirring for about 5 minutes as the honey turns a beautiful golden-orange color.
4. Cool and Save: Take it off the heat and let it cool down. Pour it into a glass jar and store it in your pantry.
