Infusions
Vanilla Bean Honey
A split vanilla bean and a light honey. In a week it tastes like the inside of a bakery.
Sauces + Condiments
Walnuts, Blue Cheese & Dark Honey
The simplest cheese course. A bold, dark honey is the point here — buckwheat or avocado stand up to the cheese.
Beauty + Body
Honey & Oat Face Mask
A gentle, traditional preparation: raw honey mixed with finely ground oats. Honey has been used on skin for thousands of years; this is a simple, pleasant way to try it.
