Food question: What can I do with honey? Any suggestions?

Of course I can just eat it without anything else, or put it on bread... But maybe there are other options?

@vaporeon_

  • fried or baked apples with a little honey, maybe add cinnamon or nutmeg
  • it can compliment a savory food, like various meats (especially as part of a marinade fur some chicken), or hell even just some beans
  • tea if you drink that

@aescling Where am I supposed to get fried/baked apples? :psyduck:

Do you think just apples would work, too? Fresh apples?

Tea is an interesting idea, I'm considering that
I know you can drink it with milk, but I don't really drink milk and don't have any in my refrigerator, so maybe tea (or herbal "tea") is a worthwhile option...

@aescling Oh, so fried/baked apples are something that I'd have to make myself, they don't sell it at the store?

Baking is impossible because I don't have an oven... How do exactly you fry an apple? :psyduck:

Do you think it's worth trying to just put some spoons of honey onto a fresh apple (after it's been peeled and cut into pieces), and seeing whether it tastes good?

@vaporeon_ i mean, you could, i guess, i’ve never really tried just putting honey on a sweet apple

if you wanted to fry an apple, just cut some up, add a (purrefurably neutral) oil to a pan, get it hot, and fry them up to taste and textual purrefurence; add honey and spices at some point. you don’t really have to be too careful with this in my experience unless mushy textures are a no-no fur you, in which case don’t cook fur too long

@aescling Have you tried it on a sour apple? The store sells both sweet apples and slightly more sour ones... Though of course, none of them is as sour as e.g. a lemon...

What sort of oil is neutral? :psyduck:

@vaporeon_ in likely increasing order of price: canola oil, grapeseed oil, avacado oil. this is not an exhaustive list. canola is totally fine

@vaporeon_ sour apples are very well suited to cooking; a granny smith is the purrototypical apple to bake a pie with
