Ingredients

  • 1 pound honey
  • ½ teaspoon real saffron not synthetic
  • 20 cardamom pods cracked open

Instructions

  • Place your honey into a double boiler until the honey is warmed through.
  • Add cardamom pods and saffron directly to the warm honey. The honey should be heated to 95-104°F, but don’t let it go beyond 104°F as that will mess with the texture of the honey.
  • Turn off the heat, and let the mixture sit for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  • Strain out the cardamom pods.
  • Store the honey in an airtight, sterilized container, to use whenever you need!
