Subtitled: Natural Recipes and Remedies for Health, Beauty and Home
Honey is amazingly powerful, both in and out of the kitchen. Rich in vitamins and minerals, and containing antioxidant and antibacterial properties, honey can be used to soothe ulcers, burns, skin sores, inflammation, and more. And studies have shown honey does a better job of easing nighttime coughs and improving sleep than many commercial cough suppressants.
In The Honey Companion, chef and DIY maven Suzy Scherr showcases recipes, home remedies, and beauty solutions that highlight honey’s unique flavor and utilize it in unexpected ways. She even includes clever household uses for beeswax.
