QuestionHow do you liquify hardened honey?Drew Hawkins1Community AnswerHardened or crystallized honey can be difficult to use, but don't worry! You can actually dissolve the crystals and soften the honey really easily. Fill a pot or bowl with warm water and place the jar of crystallized honey in the water until it softens. After a few minutes, you'll see the crystals disappear and the honey will start to flow again.

QuestionCan I microwave honey to soften it?Drew Hawkins1Community AnswerYes, as long as the honey is in a microwave-safe glass jar. Take off the metal lid and set your microwave to a low power setting. Place the jar in the microwave, set the timer for 1 minute or less, and wait for the honey to finish warming up. Stir the heated honey with a spoon to see if if the crystals are gone. If the honey still looks crusty and hardened, reheat it for 30 seconds or less.

QuestionWhat happens if honey gets hard?Drew Hawkins1Community AnswerReal, natural honey hardens and crystallizes when the temperature gets cooler. It actually doesn't harm or change the honey at all. Plus, you can easily soften and de-crystallize the honey whenever you want. Simply fill a pot or bowl with warm water. Place the container of honey in the water and let it sit until the honey starts to flow again. You can also microwave the jar of honey for 30 seconds at a time until it's soft, but make sure you remove the metal lid first!
