Real honey is a viscous liquid, which stirs up visible flexible filaments and keeps them flowing. False honey has suspended matter or precipitation, and its viscosity is small. When it is stirred, it falls drop by drop and then is cut off. After exposure, real honey becomes thinner, while fake honey remains unchanged or thickens. If honey is extremely thin and easy to flow, it may be mixed with water.
Real honey smells pure and natural, with a faint floral fragrance, while fake honey smells pungent or fruity.
True honey is sweet and delicious, with sticky taste, slightly sour taste and long aftertaste. When you taste the crystal block, your teeth will be brittle and it will melt immediately. If you taste the fake honey carefully, it has a bitter taste or a strange smell of chemicals, but it has no aromatic fragrance. The crystal block chews like sugar, and its voice is crisp and loud.
Read the label of the product carefully. The ingredients list of some honey products says sucrose, white sugar, fructose syrup, fructose syrup and so on. This is not allowed by real honey products. The label of honey can only write nectar or pure honey. It can't be fake honey that steals the concept of honey cream and honey drink.
Honey mixed with flour, starch or corn flour is turbid in color and not sweet enough in taste. Put a small amount of honey into a cup, add a proper amount of water to boil, drop a few drops of yellow wine after cooling, and shake well. If the solution turns blue or red or purple, it means that the honey is mixed with starch.
Insert the red-hot wire into the honey. If it is good honey, you can see the smoke coming out after plugging in the wire, but you can also smell the fragrance of fruits and flowers. If mixed with sugar, it will smell burnt.
Take honey 1 part, add 2 parts of cold boiled water and 4 parts of 95% alcohol, mix them evenly and leave them for one day and night. If there is no impurity precipitation, the quality is pure.
Real honey will have a lot of bubbles after being shaken well in summer, which makes it easy for honey to rise out of the honey bottle. But after 1-2 days, the bubbles will disappear automatically, but as soon as the honey bottle is opened, the gas will rush out! This is mainly because pure natural honey contains disinfectant hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is easily decomposed into oxygen at high temperature! That there is a layer of white bubbles on the surface of honey!
Winter is also quite simple. Put honey in hot water of 30-40 degrees for 4-5 minutes, then stir honey 10-20 times with chopsticks, and then let it stand. Pure natural honey will have bubbles on its surface.
