You know what Manuka honey is and what the effects of Manuka honey are , but how do you use Manuka honey?
For anyone who wants a quick recap of the first two questions: Manuka honey is a honey from Zeeland. It's made from the Manuka shrub, which gives it its name. This plant honey is known for its high MGO content. As the MGO content increases, the unique properties of Manuka honey become more pronounced. This makes Manuka popular for use in a variety of ailments. This blog post explains the many ways to enjoy Manuka honey. Manuka honey is also simply delicious.
1. Via a tablespoon
If you're eating honey pure for your body, it's recommended to eat it directly from a tablespoon. Don't eat the honey fifteen minutes before eating or drinking anything. This will prevent the honey from being absorbed properly. If you like, you can let the honey melt slowly on your tongue.
2. As a combination in a smoothie
If you're looking for a real boost for your body, combining it with a smoothie isn't a bad idea. A fruit and/or vegetable smoothie contains various vitamins, minerals, and fiber. As if that weren't enough of a boost, you can also add manuka honey. Drink the smoothie immediately, as honey can crystallize in the refrigerator. If you don't want to add honey to the smoothie, you can also use manuka honey drops .
3. On the skin
Manuka honey can also be used on the skin. Apply evenly to wounds or skin. Use clean hands or a cotton swab to do this. You can use pure honey directly, but we also offer lip balms with Manuka honey , for example.
4. At breakfast
Many people start their breakfast with yogurt combined with fruit or nuts, for example. Those who love this breakfast probably know what goes perfectly with it: honey. Manuka honey can also be enjoyed in the morning if you combine it with your breakfast.
5. Make a delicious sauce or dressing from it
One of the most popular combinations with honey is perhaps honey mustard sauce and dressing. This delicious dressing can also be made with Manuka honey. You can make the honey yourself in no time, and you probably already have the ingredients. So, check out our own honey mustard sauce recipe .
6. On the pancakes or waffles
Did you make some delicious pancakes? Then use a little Manuka honey instead of syrup or sugar. Honey, like sugar and syrup, is deliciously sweet, making it a perfect combination with the pancake or waffle.
7. Through the tea
The final, highly recommended option is to add Manuka honey to your tea. Be careful, though, as the effectiveness of Manuka honey diminishes when it exceeds 40°C (104°F). The various enzymes then break down, which is a waste. Therefore, wait until the tea is ready to drink before adding the honey.
