How to liquidify honey?

Hi friends

I bought a big bottle of pure honey from India.It is frozen now due to cold weather here.I have heard if we heat honey it will lose its medicinal value.Iam confusedwhat I should do with it now.
If anyone know how to liquidify honey without losing its medicinal values,help me.

Thanks,
seeba.

Hi Seeba,

Personally, I've never left honey to be stored for a long time.

I buy them fresh whenever required and use them.

But, in this case, I think you can place it inside another container with warm water...and keep repeating it till it thaws or comes to room temperature.

Hope this helps..

Dear krithika,

Thanks for your reply.
The honey I bought was new and I didnot keep it for long.Within one week it was frozen!!!!!
Anyway I will try your idea of keeping it in warm water and will let you know the result.Hope this will work

With love,
seeba.

Hi seeba,

Since you mentioned that you got from India, I assumed it must have been quite some time

Anyway, try this method, if not...try to microwave it inside a glass container, in quick intervals of 30 seconds. My !

best of luck..let me know if you were able to bring it to normal state.

Dont try to liquify the entire content at a time.Take reqd qty in a cup.Heat water in a pan ,when warm afloat the cup until it dissolves.Honey has long shelf life.It may crystallise..but its content is good.

Hi Supriya,

Even for taking out a small quantity. of honey...she should be first able to take it out...right? If the whole thing is solid...it will be difficult for her to even take out a little from the bottle..

Dear Krithika&Supriya,

Thanks for ur caring reply.As kirthika says its really difficult to part a small amount of honey from the whole bottle.
I don't have a microwave.so I will use the other method you both mentioned(placing in warm water) and will let you know the results very soon.

With luv,

Hi Seeba,

Were you successful in bringing the honey to the normal form?

Since you had mentioned in another thread that you had started having honey with lemon & warm water..I just wanted to find out...:)

Dear Krithika,

Sorry for the late reply.Just now I saw ur post.
Yes its true I have started drinking honey+lemon+water.
And I used the method u gave me to liquidify honey.I placed it in warm water.It doesn't melt so easily.It takes a little bit of time,but I somehow managed to melt it.Thanks for helping

with luv,
seeba.

Dear Seeba,

That's really wonderful that the method worked...good for you !
