Every once in a while I see buckwheat honey for sale and make the
mistake of buying a small jar of it. I used to like it as an occasional
treat. The problem is that, as much as I enjoy it the first few times I
have it, it quickly loses it's appeal. A little bit of that stuff goes
along way.

There is a place near me that collects local honey ... I see their
boxes all over. Their honey is so delicious, not cooked. Wonderful
stuff, and they have different varieties.

Buckwheat honey, that sounds interesting, so I tasted a sample.
Momma mia, that is some sturdy stuff right there. I didn't buy
that, not sure what I'd even do with it.

I am wondering if maybe there is something in the line of a healthy
snack bar with lots of other funky flavours that could handle the
intense flavour of the buckwheat honey.

Like something that could handle strong molasses, maybe. That's
a good idea. Putting it on your toast, not so much.

For me. There are probably a million people who'd like it on
toast.

I've never seen that, never heard of it either. I'm still working on
finding Greek honey, which I hear is excellent.

Perhaps what you're buying isn't a good buckwheat honey, often what's
on sale is over processed and it's not really a very pure buckwheat
honey. Quality buckwheat honey is very good for baked goods.

Excellent for honeycake.

Guess where your Greek style honey comes.

It's worth a try. My father used to like it so my mother would buy it
occasionally for him. I had fond memories of it and occasionally would
buy it if I saw it for sale. It's actually pretty good, but the thing
is that, as much as I like it the first few times I have it, I tire of
it quickly. It is worth trying if you come across it. , but I would
recommend getting only a small jar. It is an interesting taste. It is a
good taste. It is also a very intense flavour.

I rarely use white sugar as a sweetener, I mostly use honey or dark
brown sugar, I'm still working on the five pound bag of white sugar I
bought some 20 years ago, there's still more than enough for another
20 years. Several of my neighbors keep bees so are always trading me
honey for veggies... in rural areas it's very common to use a loosey
goosey barter system with neighbors rather than cash, when I offer
them my extra veggies from my garden they bring me some of their extra
honey, there's no formal agreement. I've always maintained a policy
of not doing cash business with neighbors.

I use very little honey, so I buy the smallest container they sell -
but we use it so little that it gets hard (is that what crystallize
is?) before it's half way gone. Sure I can reliquify it, but it just
doesn't taste the same to me after that.

I confess to liking it after it was crystalized.

I just found this today. I've never seen or heard of it before but
can't wait to try it. At least it won't crystallize before I'm done
with it.

It's a popular sweetener in Korea in either powder or liquid form. It's made from dried agave juice.
