Honey

Timeless recipes from a beekeeper’s kitchen

By Amy Newsome

In this sticky celebration of honey from bloom to plate, Amy Newsome offers a glimpse into the craft of beekeeping and the remarkable world of the honeybee, with enticing recipes straight from a beekeeper’s kitchen. Here, curious cooks will find new takes on familiar favourites, much-loved historic traditions and modern plates with honey at their heart.

A fundamental part of human existence for over 10,000 years, honey fresh from the hive has inspired generations of cooks to dream up delicious dishes and drinks both savoury and sweet. Get stuck in with tempting recipes, from Saffron and Apricot Honey Buns to Smoked Lime and Honey Chicken, Eucalyptus Honey Granita and a Mezcal Margarita to wash everything down.
A love letter to good food, good honey, and the bees that make it – this is an ode to the simple pleasure of cooking with honey for your artisan kitchen.
