Why doesn t honey taste sweet, and why is the pure honey I bought not sweet?

The reason why pure honey is not sweet is that there is less sugar.

Different honeys have different tastes and colors, and the low concentration of honey has a high water content, and the high concentration of honey has a low water content, so it is the same honey, and the higher concentration is higher than the sweetness of the lower concentration.

Taste the honey directly and taste it directly, and the pure honey is drunk into the mouth, which is sweet and greasy, and has a long aftertaste. There is a feeling of stickiness in the high concentration. When you drink it directly on an empty stomach, you feel uncomfortable in your throat and stomach.

Different honeys have different flavors and colors. The low concentration of honey has a high water content, and the high concentration of honey has a low water content, so it is the same honey, the higher concentration is higher than the lower concentration of sweetness. Tasting honey should be directly sipped, pure honey into the mouth, sweet and greasy, long aftertaste.

There is a feeling of stickiness in the high concentration. When you drink it directly on an empty stomach, you feel uncomfortable in your throat and stomach. Even if you eat white sugar directly, you don't have the sweet and greasy feeling of honey.

Because you used to drink fake, with added syrup, no matter how you drink it, it is fishy and sweet, and if you really drink it directly, it will be sweet and greasy, and it will be slightly sweet when you drink it in water!

1. Drip the honey on the white paper, if the honey gradually seeps out, it means that there is sucrose and water. Honey mixed with sugar has poor transparency, is not clear, is cloudy, and has a poor floral aroma. The color of the honey mixed with brown sugar is dark; The honey mixed with sugar is pale in color.

2. Honey mixed with flour, starch or corn flour has a cloudy color and a taste that is not sweet enough. Put a small amount of honey into a cup, add an appropriate amount of water to boil, and after cooling, drop a few drops of rice wine and shake well, if the solution turns blue or red or purple, it means that there are starches in the honey.

3. Insert the red-hot wire into the honey, if there is sticky matter attached to the wire, it means that there are impurities in the honey. If the wire is still smooth, there are no impurities.

4. Take a part of honey, add two parts of cold boiled water and 4 parts of 95 alcohol, mix well and put it for a day and night, if there is no impurity precipitation, it means that the quality is pure.

5. If the honey can be pulled into a long filament with chopsticks, and the filament will automatically retract into a ball, it is the top grade.

1. "Sweet or not" is a degree word, and everyone's taste perception is different. Some people have a more sensitive sense of taste and will think that honey will be very sweet. Some people are more accustomed to sweetness, but they will feel that it is not so sweet.

On the issue of whether honey is sweet or not, the subjective judgment of individuals is different, so the authenticity of honey cannot be judged because it is too sweet or not.

2. The sweetness of honey is affected by the nectar source plant, and the nectar of some honey slow reeds will cause the brewed honey to be very sweet, for example, jujube nectar is one of the honey species with a heavier sweetness and a stronger taste. Honey made from some plant nectar has a moderate sweetness and a fresh taste, so the sweetness is felt differently when drinking different honeys.

3. If you buy immature honey with a very short brewing period, the taste may not be sweet. Because the brewing time of immature honey is generally 2-3 days, the glucose and fructose content in honey at this time is relatively small, containing a lot of water, and the sweetness of honey will be much less than that of mature honey. When encountering this kind of honey, we must be vigilant, the immature honey in the nutrient substances is relatively small, and the nutritional value of the human body is low.

Moreover, because it contains a lot of water, it is easy to ferment and deteriorate.

Honey is the nectar or secretion of plants collected by bees, which is fully brewed, and the main components are glucose and fructose, accounting for 60% and 80%, so authentic honey is objectively sweeter.

However, due to the honey species or taste, it may not feel too sweet, but this does not judge that the honey is bad, you can check the test report.

1. Honey is a sweet substance stored in the nest spleen by bees collecting the nectar gland of plants or the secretion of nectar glands outside flowers, mixed with bee enzyme solution, and fully brewed;

3. Honey is mainly used in nectar, followed by nectar and honeydew. Nectar is the secretion of nectar glands in plant flowers, manna is the excrement of aphids and leafhoppers, and honeydew bark is the secretion of nectar glands outside plant flowers.

3. Honey is a supersaturated solution of sugar, which will crystallize at low temperature, and the crystallization is glucose, and the part that does not crystallize is mainly fructose.

Honey is a sweet substance that bees collect the nectar or secretions of plants, and store them in the nest spleen after full brewing, which contains high concentrations of sugars, mainly including glucose and fructose, accounting for 60% and 80%, so honey is naturally molded and sweet. It's just that the taste of honey is sometimes affected by a variety of factors, and the sweetness of various types of honey is different, some are heavier, and some are slightly lighter.
