Brassica Organic Honey

Description

Brassica Raw Honey is raw mustard flower honey made from nectar collected when bees forage on mustard blossoms in the Brassica family. You get a single floral style honey that focuses on simple handling, clean taste, and clear labeling. The supplier states the hives sit in a Himalayan growing area away from major roads, then the honey is imported and packed locally. That means you get Himalayan Raw Honey that is Packed in Australia Raw Honey.

Brassica Raw Honey and what you are actually buying

You are buying a food, not a medicine. Brassica Raw Honey gives you a raw style honey that has not been pasteurised. Many producers use “raw” to mean unpasteurised honey that has had minimal processing. In practical terms, you can expect a honey that keeps its natural character and varies from batch to batch.

Raw and organic are not the same thing. “Raw” describes how the honey was handled, mainly that it was not pasteurised or heavily processed. “Organic” relates to production standards and certification. This jar is described as raw and unpasteurised, so judge it on that basis.

Because this is Unpasteurised Raw Honey, you may notice tiny natural particles. You may also see colour changes between jars. That is normal for honey, because seasons and blossoms change.

What makes Brassica Raw Honey different

Brassica Raw Honey is tied to its floral source. Mustard blossoms produce a distinct nectar, and that source gives this jar its identity as Raw Mustard Flower Honey. If you buy several honeys and compare them, you will notice that each flower source tastes different. Do not expect every jar to taste identical. Expect a consistent style, not a fixed flavour.

This product also keeps its process simple. It is unpasteurised and classified as raw. It is imported from the Himalayan region and packed in Australia, which supports local handling and distribution. If you care about provenance, use the label details for country of origin and packing location when you compare products.

How to use Brassica Raw Honey

Use Brassica Raw Honey in ways that keep the taste clear.

Add a spoon to yoghurt, oats, or fruit.
Spread it on toast or rice cakes.
Mix it into salad dressing with olive oil and lemon.
Stir it into tea after the tea cools slightly.
Use it as a finish on warm foods after cooking, not during high heat.

If you pour boiling water directly onto honey, you will still get sweetness, but you can lose some aroma. If you want the raw experience, add it after your drink cools a little.

Texture and crystallisation

Raw honey often crystallises over time. Crystallisation is a normal change where honey turns thicker or grainy. It does not mean the honey has gone bad. If Brassica Raw Honey crystallises, warm the jar gently in a bowl of warm water and stir. Keep the water warm, not boiling, and avoid microwaving if you want gentle handling.

Some people prefer crystallised honey because it spreads like a soft paste. If you like it runny, use the warm water method, then store it at a steady room temperature.

Storage and safety

Store Brassica Raw Honey with the lid closed in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Keep water out of the jar to reduce the risk of fermentation. Use a clean, dry spoon each time.

Do not give honey to babies under 12 months. Health authorities warn that honey can contain spores that can cause infant botulism in children under one year old.

People sometimes talk about honey’s “healing” uses. Research focuses on medical grade honey products for wound care, not standard table honey. You should not treat Brassica Raw Honey as a treatment for illness. If you have a medical condition or you need specific dietary advice, talk to a qualified health professional.
