Homemade Lavender Honey From South West France Recipes

HOMEMADE LAVENDER HONEY

Homemade Lavender Honey image

In Provence, lavender honey is made by the bees that frequent the wild purple-budded bushes growing near their hives. Be aware that this homemade version, infused with lavender flowers, needs to stand for 24 hours before being used. If you purchase dried lavender flowers, be sure that they are culinary quality. A lovely gift! From "From the Cook's Garden".

Yield 1 8-ounce jar Lavender Honey, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

Ingredients

1 cup raw clover honey
24 fresh heads lavender flowers (or 1 tablespoon dried lavender flowers)

Steps:

Warm the honey in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the lavender. Remove from the heat, cover, and let stand at room temperature for 24 hours.
Warm the honey again over low heat until it is liquid enough to pour freely. Strain through a wire sieve (I place a clean paper coffee filter inside the mesh strainer), into a clean jar. Cool and cover.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 6 months. Serve at room temperature.

HOMEMADE LAVENDER HONEY FROM SOUTH WEST FRANCE

Homemade Lavender Honey from South West France image

A quick and easy home-made honey recipe from the Auberge in South West France! I use lavender honey so much in my cooking, that I thought it was about time I made my own - given that I have about 30 lavender bushes! As well as giving an amazing and subtle flavour to your recipes, it also makes a wonderful gift for a fellow foodie. I plan on making my own lavender honey all the time now, as even in France, it is quite expensive to buy. You can increase the quantities to make more jars - just remember to keep the flower to honey ratio the same.

AUBERGE FRENCH LAVENDER PANCAKES WITH LAVENDER HONEY

Auberge French Lavender Pancakes With Lavender Honey image

Our own Auberge de la Fontaine Lavender Pancakes - these are made with home-grown organic lavender flowers from our garden here in SW France, where we often serve them for breakfast! They also make a very elegant dessert when served with cream and fruit - I sometimes serve them with Recipe #241775. If you cannot get hold of culinary lavender, these pancakes are just fine if served with the lavender honey, butter and/or cream and fresh fruit.

Categories Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 12 Pancakes, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

8 ounces plain flour
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon powdered dried lavender flowers
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 tablespoons butter, melted and allowed to cool slightly
cooking spray or butter
lavender honey, to serve
cream, to serve
butter, to serve

Steps:

In a large bowl, mix together all dry ingredients together.
Add the milk, eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until well combined.
Whisk in the melted butter until the batter is thick and very smooth.
Heat frying pan or griddle over medium heat, and spray with cooking oil spray or grease with a knob of butter.
Spoon the pancake batter onto the griddle in equal amounts and cook until bubbles come to the surface of the batter and the edges start to curl up.
Flip pancakes with a spatula, and cook for a few seconds more on the second side.
Check underneath for a golden brown colour- if they are too pale, keep cooking them a bit longer.
When they are done, remove them from the griddle/frying pan and put on a large heat-proof plate in the oven to keep warm and continue until all the batter is used.
Makes about a dozen pancakes.
Top with Lavender honey and cream, or butter and Lavender honey.
Great with fruit also!

Pour the honey over the blossoms and then stir to make sure the honey and blossoms are well-combined.
Place the jar in a warm spot away from direct sunlight. The top of the fridge is a good, warm spot.
Allow the honey to infuse for 1-4 weeks, turning the jar over every day to redistribute the blossoms.
When the honey has reached the flavor intensity that suits you, place a mesh strainer over a medium bowl and pour the honey mixture into the strainer. Because honey is so thick it will take a long time to strain, so wait a few hours before checking on it.
