Thing I love about this channel is that you can learn in very little time. The quick videos are great for a busy single mum like me. Thanks for all your great information ❤️
I'm so glad you've found these short how-to videos so helpful! Thank you for tuning in and the kind words :) - Gracie
I like to Use a double boiler , a pot with water & then place a Pyrex bowl ( big enough to cover the whole pot ) add the raw honey and herbs to the Pyrex bowl , this will ensure 100% purity , avoids the honey sticking to the pot or getting burnt . I usually infuse my raw honey on low temp for 3-4 hours and then I’ll strain it with organic cheesecloth by hand ( this also insures almost 100% purity ) yu won’t even see any herb particles if so the tiniest amount almost unnoticeable
Hey is it on low temp for 3 to 4 hours straight or on and off?
Please reply.
I’ve been trying to figure out how to strain my raw infused goldenrod honey ever since I first put it in the jar 😅! Thanks for the quick tip about gentle heat!
Thanks 🙏🏽 I love that you make it feel simple and practical.
Glad it was helpful! Maria is a great teacher :) - Gracie
That's super healthy honey... Good for a tea in morning or night... I like it..... Thank you!!!!
Love your videos !!! Very quick and to the point & I always use your info to confirm my research . I would like to know how long should the honey stay warm in a yogurt maker ? Does the turning off and on apply to yogurt maker method as well ?
I'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't like to measure. Most of the old fashion recipes I've come across measures in parts. When people start suggesting I weight things out on a scale, I start to loss interest. Measuring cups I'm good with. Conversions and non-whole numbers, I get tired and want to move on.
Liked the way you use the remain honey in the pan ❤
Nice video, and great tip about the yogurt maker. For people who have, erm, "delicate" taste buds, I like to mix drops of alcohol tinctures with honey, especially linden flower honey.
Was that a porcelain lined pot, or was it just the lighting?
I was wondering about the pan too!
Thank you so much for thinking about the bees 🐝🐝🐝
Thank you for the informative video! I would however love to retain as much of the healing properties of honey as possible, whilst also extracting the beneficial compounds from my herb as well as possible. Could I lightly roast my herb (on low heat in a slow cooker, per example) and then using the roasted herb to do a cold infusion with honey? It would of course alter the taste, but I’m mainly looking for the best extraction and infusion possible. Grateful for advice! 🙏
Hi there! You can infuse honey without using heat at all if you would prefer that option! If you scroll down in this blog, you will find a no heat method: blog.mountainroseherbs.com/herbal-infused-honey. Plus, at the bottom, there are two delicious recipes to get you started! I hope that helps! Happy crafting :) - Gracie
Have C.O.P.D. Want to infuse honey to help respiratory function. Do you know if there is a recipe and where to find it? Looked at the books on herbs I collected and no luck so far. Please point me in the right direction
when making elderberry syrup we are simmering the honey too and yes, it is sad to lose the honey value
Hi there! We like to add our honey to our elderberry syrup after we take it off the heat! Here's a video of our process: th-cam.com/video/w20EeRViTxA/w-d-xo.html
Love these videos I wish I was closer so as to take classes. I absolutely love these videos great educational value ❤❤
Why did you not do double boiler method?
Thanks for sharing this! ⭐️
You are so welcome!
This is an amazing idea. I absolutly love lavender. The only change I would have made is to make tea and use the tea water to dissolve the honey.
Can you just add extra honey afterwards to get the benefits of the honey? Please answer back
Hi there! You can definitely add more honey if that's what appeals to you. The trick is to heat it very gently on the lowest heat possible, and keep it below 100 degrees F to help preserve the beneficial properties of honey. You can use a thermometer for this, but some people just touch it to the inside of their wrist like testing a baby's bottle. I've also heard people using a yogurt maker which keeps the temperature lower as well. Hope that helps!
Hi friend, can i put this on my bottle dropper after making infused herbal honey?
You are welcome to put your infused honey in any sealed container that works best for you! It is worth noting that the consistency of the honey may not be ideal for a dropper, which are typically used for thinner liquids. I hope that helps!
@@mountainroseherbs thank you for sharing your knowledge dear friend 😊 happy new year and God bless you 💞
What can be used to replace honey? I have a friend who is highly allergic to honey but would love a herbal infused sweet like this. Would agave work the same way?
Sounds like a great idea!
Can you use golden rod in the crock pot for infused honey. How long.
Hi there! We have not tried making honey infusions in a crock pot before, so we cannot not speak to the success or longevity it would take to infuse. Apologies for not being able to offer more advice, best of luck to you!
I'm dying to do this with Gumweed. Would be great for coughs and sore throats. Dry the Gumweed first? Not sure since Gumweed is so sticky.
Looks delicious! I love lavender honey.
Cool technique, little wasteful for me. Could you add some raw honey in later to get the benefits? Like a half/half when you take it? Would a double boiler work better for heating? Thank you for these awesome videos!😀
Such a good idea! I want to do this with Moringa powder for my kids but don’t think I’ll strain it! Great video!
Thank you for the video.I have two questions. Number one I have a very small tiny crockpot that just stays warm all the time if I used it to infuse honey and herbs how long would I cook it? And question two Is how would you use this honey infused herb?
It's better to watch this recipe as you make it. It can be dangerous if honey is overheated (just below a boil), so you want to make sure it heats up slowly and lowly. You never want to see honey boil, it can be dangerous to ingest. Once completed, use this like you would any honey! Great for sweetening you favorite herbal teas or take by the spoonful just because!
Cool concept but for the amount of honey left it's very wasteful
Is it safe to infuse honey with more then 1 herb
Hi there! There should be no issue with using more than one herb in a honey infusion. However, we always recommend that you consult with a qualified practitioner to help you determine which herbs will be best suited for your specific needs. Thank you again 🌿
Can I use that infused honey on my face????
Of course! You may want to do a small patch test on your skin to make sure you won't have any adverse reactions to the infused herbs. Enjoy! - Gracie
Actually you can use just pure real honey as a mask on your face. As long as you are not allergic to honey, you'll be just fine. Leave honey on your face for like 20 minutes, then rinse off. You'll notice the nice difference on your face.
why not use a double boiler instead?
Hi there! A double boiler is always another option for infusing honey though many people are concerned with keeping the beneficial properties of honey which can only be done at a low temperature. Many say keeping honey below 100° F is best so with a double boiler you would want to be cognizant of the temp of boiling water being much higher. Definitely personal preference and what you're intending to use the honey for!
Could I use marigold/calendula
Hi Jasmine! This herb-infused honey recipe will work with pretty much any herb your heart desires. I think calendula would be a lovely choice :)
Not using honey for the healing properties? That is just wrong. Waste of excellent properties.
Lots of respect for your work. But you should NEVER heat honey more than 140F. Please, do little bit more research on this topic, specially, what Ayurveda has to say about it. There are also multiple modern studies. People are looking up to your resources, it is your responsibility to deliver correct information to provide safety.
i think she is saying heat the honey to 100 degrees. I am curious about sayingon one hand to use a yogurt maker or the sun OR the burner. Im guess that she means to keep that burner very low (at 100 or less).
but furthermore if the rationale is to prohibit moisture and mold would 100 do the job?
i thought the acid level of honey would prevent mold???
OMGI love your teachings but you gotta give a more sure an easier way to infuse honey other than stand around or sit around waiting for this😢 Please teach the crock pot or instapot message please
If you check out our Pro Tips section in this blog, you can see we noted that using a yogurt maker will do the job well! I'm sure there are resources out there for how to use a crock pot or instapot, unfortunately we have never used that method before. Happy crafting!
