Black Pepper Honey

I wasn’t sure how I was going to word this post on black pepper honey. I mean, yeah, it’s just honey, salt and pepper. It’s not like there are 50 ingredients and 25 kitchen gadgets involved here. But boy, was this honey ever good on a few toasted English muffins. I never thought about just how much salt and pepper really could make honey even better than it already is. It’s just that easy. Great anywhere you use “regular” honey, but out of this world great on a crunch English muffin!

My great uncle kept bees for a while when I was younger. I was (and still am) fascinated by them. It’s amazing how much different fresh honey tastes than the mass-produced honey you find in the grocery store. It’s like night and day. But, the store-bought stuff is a bit easier to find!

As an aside, we now have a number of bee keepers in my housing development. The bees are an important part of the environment. Look around, maybe you have a few keepers too!

For a little kick, using a spicy honey, like Mike’s Hot Honey!

Try some black pepper honey on my deep fried biscuits or better yet, my black pepper biscuits. Yeah, they’re crazy good.
