I used to toss away crystallized honey, but it was a waste of perfectly good honey. I would like to share with you a life hack.

I warmed up two bottles of crystallized honey in the microwave for about 15 seconds—just enough to make them easier to pour. Then I transferred the honey into a clean, wide-mouth jar so I can scoop it out with a spoon more easily. I’m glad I didn’t throw the honey away!

I looked it up, and it’s safe to reuse and store honey that has been gently warmed, as long as it’s kept in a clean, airtight container after it cools.

Don’t store honey in the refrigerator! Refrigeration makes honey crystallize even faster. The best place to store it is in a cool, dry pantry at room temperature.
