Three ways to enjoy the sweetness of honey

Did You Know?

Canada produces more than 34 million kilograms of honey annually, with the Prairies leading the crop. Homegrown varieties include delicately flavoured clover, mild alfalfa and robust buckwheat—but regardless of the type, it’s a versatile ingredient. Add honey to marinades for extra-tender meat, use it in baking (it’s sweeter than sugar, so you’ll need less) or add to salad dressings to boost flavour.
