Therefore, it is essential that we know\u00a0<strong>how to know if honey is pure.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let us remember the important contributions that<strong>&nbsp;pure honey&nbsp;<\/strong>gives us.It contains antioxidants, vitamins such as B, C, D, and E, and numerous minerals such as iron, copper, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and manganese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/razafolklorica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/C%C3%B3mo-saber-si-la-miel-es-pura.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22837\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the benefits we obtain, it helps us fight insomnia, improves intestinal transit and activates the functioning of our brain, among other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In view of this reality, when we go out to buy it, try to make sure we bring the best for&nbsp;<strong>our family<\/strong>. That is why we will write some ideas in order to identify it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Como_reconocer_si_la_miel_es_pura\">How to recognize if honey is pure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are signs that we can observe and that help us recognize if honey is pure, such as its color, flavor, texture and consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you know if honey is natural?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is characterized by being&nbsp;<strong>sweet<\/strong>&nbsp;but<strong>&nbsp;bitter<\/strong>&nbsp;at the same time. It can cause&nbsp;<strong>itching<\/strong>&nbsp;in your throat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The perfume<\/strong>&nbsp;is represented by being an exquisite&nbsp;<strong>scent<\/strong>&nbsp;of flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You have to be attentive to&nbsp;<strong>the pigment<\/strong>&nbsp;of the product, because if&nbsp;<strong>the honey&nbsp;<\/strong>has too light a tone it means that the bees (producers of this beneficial fruit) were nourished with sugar syrup or molasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I tell if honey is pure?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another simple method is to pour a teaspoon into a glass of water, if it reaches the bottom and makes lumps it means that it is&nbsp;<strong>virgin<\/strong>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<strong>pure.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another way to check if honey is&nbsp;<strong>pure&nbsp;<\/strong>can be by observing its&nbsp;<strong>quality<\/strong>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<strong>thickness,&nbsp;<\/strong>since if it is very liquid it would mean that it contains chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are some tricks with paper, which are also very efficient. If you place a tablespoon on the&nbsp;<strong>absorbent&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>paper&nbsp;<\/strong>and then remove it without any traces, it shows you at a glance that it is&nbsp;<strong>pure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The vinegar test&nbsp;<\/strong>can also be performed, it consists of spilling droplets of this very common liquid, which we all have in our homes, on&nbsp;<strong>the honey&nbsp;<\/strong>and this should not develop any change. If the opposite happens, it is because this product (honey) has&nbsp;<strong>chalk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you know if honey is pure without sugar?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can tell by its color and flavor, since adulterated&nbsp;<strong>honey&nbsp;<\/strong>looks like it is very liquid like a candy or candy. On the other hand<strong>, pure honey&nbsp;<\/strong>always crystallizes, this is one of its main characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We should not be scared if&nbsp;<strong>honey<\/strong>&nbsp;frosts or solidifies, it is a very common peculiarity of honey. As a last fact to highlight,&nbsp;<strong>natural honey does not have an expiration date.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Como_reconocer_la_miel_adulterada_en_casa\">How to recognize adulterated honey at home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To determine that&nbsp;<strong>the honey<\/strong>&nbsp;is adulterated, such as with starches or flours, a drop of iodine is added to the&nbsp;<strong>honey&nbsp;<\/strong>mixture dissolved in water. If it turns a bluish color, it means that it has additives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another option to validate it would be to apply&nbsp;<strong>honey&nbsp;<\/strong>to the tip of a match, which if it does not light correctly is because it has chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we put&nbsp;<strong>the honey<\/strong>&nbsp;in a jar and turn it quickly, we can notice that it makes a bubble. If this&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;bubble&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;disappears quickly, it means that it is adulterated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we pour&nbsp;<strong class=\"\">the honey<\/strong>&nbsp;on a plate, and then put it in the microwave, we can see that if this sweetener is counterfeit, it will be liquid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we already know,&nbsp;<strong>honey&nbsp;<\/strong>helps us comfort our&nbsp;<strong>immune system&nbsp;<\/strong>and that is why these tips will help us to be safe and satisfied with what our body eats, whether for medicinal or culinary use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today,\u00a0honey\u00a0is no longer as natural as we think, as consumers are deceived with a crude imitation that contains chemicals.
