Identification method of true and false local honey
Why is it earth honey instead of honey? Because there are essential differences between earth honey and honey. Soil honey is a variety of nectar collected by bees in China, also known as Chinese bee sugar, which is rare and pollution-free in mountainous areas. Compared with other honey, it has better effects of beauty, weight loss and health preservation. The honey in the market is mixed, some are artificial and some are concentrated. These honey will lose its nutritional value and will not play a health care role. So how to identify true and false earth honey?

Identification method of true and false local honey

Number one: Look, just look. There will be bubbles on the surface of real honey, because the antibacterial substance hydrogen peroxide produced by glucose in honey under the action of oxidase is easily decomposed into oxygen! So that there are very delicate white bubbles on the surface of honey.

Real earth honey crystallizes at low temperature. If it is left at a relatively cold air temperature (about 14 degrees) for one month, the honey that is easy to crystallize is still bright and has no crystallization, which may be concentrated honey.

Second: smell, earth honey will ferment slightly, producing a slightly thick floral fragrance, which is a little pungent and slightly sour, while fake honey is not fragrant enough.

Third: cut, that is, taste, concentrated honey is processed at high temperature, and its aromatic substances are decomposed, so the smell of most concentrated honey is not much different. Among natural active honey, except for Baihua honey and earth honey, the tastes of other honey are obviously different, and even a few honey such as eucalyptus honey and buckwheat honey have a little fishy smell.

Identification method of true and false local honey II

First: look at the color. Authentic earth honey contains a lot of complex ingredients, which are generally turbid and have some impurities; Earth honey contains a lot of active enzymes, and white bubbles will appear in the bottle on hot days; The "processed honey" sold in some supermarkets obviously does not have this feature.

Second: smell. Real earth honey usually has the fragrance of flowers or herbs, and can also smell a little sour and sweet fermentation and bitter taste of vegetation.

Third: look at the state. Authentic local honey is easy to crystallize, while fake honey will not crystallize all year round. Many people think that honey that does not crystallize is good honey, which is wrong, because fake honey does not crystallize at all.

Fourth: taste. Real honey is sweet and delicious, with a slightly spicy throat and a slightly sour taste, and a long aftertaste; The crystallized earth honey is very brittle in the teeth, and it melts when it is contained. There is a rustle, and it feels particularly soft. Fake honey has a bitter taste, and the crystal blocks taste like sugar, and the sound is crisp and loud.

Know the identification method of true and false local honey, and you can see it by buying honey. Our honey will crystallize in winter. Many people ask whether the crystallization is fake after buying it, so many people think that honey without crystallization is good honey. This concept is wrong. No wonder it is deceived by fake honey on the market, because fake honey doesn't crystallize at all.

Baihua honey belongs to the first-class honey in honey varieties, so the price is higher. Baihua honey smells fragrant and has the taste of flowers. Many people like the honey produced by our own bees. We also drink honey every day. Our skin is good and our body is healthy.
