Honey-Roasted Squash with Thyme

Dinner

Honey-Roasted Squash with Thyme

Butternut roasted hot with olive oil, then finished with honey and thyme so the edges go dark and sticky.

Honey-Mustard Roast Chicken Thighs

Dinner

Honey-Mustard Roast Chicken Thighs

Dijon, honey and rosemary rubbed onto chicken thighs and roasted until the skin lacquers. A dark honey gives the glaze real depth.

Walnuts, Blue Cheese & Dark Honey

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.

How to Taste Honey at Home

Seasonal

How to Taste Honey at Home

Not a recipe but a ritual. Three honeys, three spoons, room temperature. You'll never taste 'sweet' again — you'll taste place.

Hot Honey Butter Toddy

Drinks

Hot Honey Butter Toddy

A toddy with a knob of butter melted into it, and enough chili honey to warm the back of your throat.

Fermented Garlic Honey

Sauces + Condiments

Fermented Garlic Honey

Peeled garlic under raw honey, left alone for a month. The honey thins and turns savory; the cloves go mellow and syrupy.

Hot Honey Glaze for Barbecue or Wings

Sauces + Condiments

Hot Honey Glaze for Barbecue or Wings

Chili, smoked paprika, vinegar and butter cooked into honey until it clings. Brush it on in the last minutes, not before.

Crispy Salmon with Buckwheat Honey & Soy

Dinner

Crispy Salmon with Buckwheat Honey & Soy

Salmon seared skin-side down, then glazed with dark honey, tamari and ginger. The buckwheat is what keeps it from tasting like teriyaki.

Herbal Honey Oxymel

Infusions

Herbal Honey Oxymel

An old herbalist's preparation: equal parts raw honey and cider vinegar, with woody herbs steeping for a month. Sharp, sweet, taken by the spoon or stirred into water.

Fire Cider

Infusions

Fire Cider

Horseradish, ginger, garlic, onion and hot chili packed into a jar and drowned in raw cider vinegar. A month later you strain it, sweeten it with raw honey, and it bites back.
