Honey

Honey is the nemesis of measuring cups: it's viscous, sticky, and slow. When measuring by volume, significant product inevitably clings to the vessel, throwing off both the moisture and sweetness of your recipe. Weighing honey directly into your mixing bowl isn't just more accurate—it's the only way to avoid a sticky cleanup.

FAQ

My honey crystallized. Does the weight change?

No. Crystallization is just sugar molecules aligning. The weight remains exactly the same. To re-liquefy, place the jar in a bowl of warm water; do not microwave raw honey if you want to preserve its enzymes.

Can I use the 'oil the cup' trick?

Yes, lightly oiling the measuring cup helps honey slide out, but weighing is still faster and produces fewer dirty dishes.
