Tips & variations

Honey should not be boiled, it will lose not only its beneficial properties, but also its aroma. Therefore, if your honey is not liquid, then you can melt it only in a water bath.
-
The finished dough should be allowed to stand for 5-10 minutes, it is not necessary to put it in the friger.
-
It is permissible to add other spices to the dough, for example: licorice, cardamom, nutmeg and even a mixture of peppers. The main thing - do not mix all the spices at once.
-
The final taste of baking also depends on the type of honey. It is very important to choose spices that will be combined with it. For example, cardamom is suitable for buckwheat honey, cloves are suitable for flower honey, and vanilla is suitable for linden honey.
-
