True and false, honey does not like heat very much and takes on a bitter taste if overheated, which crushes its more subtle notes. Who hasn't burned the skin of a honey chicken before? It is therefore better to incorporate it at the very end of cooking or, better yet, at the finish, as one would do for example with a good olive oil. In cake recipes, substitute it for white sugar by reducing the oven temperature by 15 ° C and reducing the total volume of liquid ingredients by a quarter. Roughly speaking, 170g of honey (approx. 1/2 cup) replaces 200g (approx. 1 cup) of sugar.
Heating to around 77 ° C for 5-6 minutes " instantly kills honey. Its enzymes are destroyed, its essential oils evaporate and the good sugars that can be assimilated by the body are transformed into sucrose. Honey therefore becomes white sugar in terms of composition ”. If the practice is so popular in Quebec, it is because it prevents the formation of crystals and facilitates its marketing. In France, pasteurization of honey is prohibited.
True, the color of a honey is directly related to the type of flowers foraging (the color of the flower has, however, no connection with the color honey: a purple flower will not produce darker honey than a white flower, for example) and, in general, the darker the honey, the more full-bodied and aromatic it is.
