    If the honey is not brushed at all and can penetrate the back of the tissue, you can basically tell that the honey is not pure!

    In fact, the purity of honey is related to its toughness and permeability, but it is not the most reliable criterion for judging the purity of honey. Usually pure honey is not very drawn, but if you lift it with chopsticks, it will flow down in a continuous stream. In addition, pure honey generally does not penetrate paper towels!

    The following is a more scientific way to judge the purity of honey:

    1.Shape and taste characteristics of quality honey: high-quality honey is in a thick liquid state, and the color is white, light yellow or red.

    Pick up a little honey with chopsticks, the honey flows downward, and the continuous flow of honey is folded; Honey that is mixed with water or has a lot of water is not easy to pick up. From the transparency of honey: the newly produced honey is translucent, and the honey stored more is opaque, sand grains, the smell is still pure, and the taste is extremely sweet.

    2.When honey is mixed with sugar, the sweetness of honey becomes lighter and slightly sour, and the glucose crystals are not significant, and the drops on the paper can penetrate the back. If you take one part of honey, add 4 parts of distilled water, dilute it, and then add a small amount of 95 alcohol, good honey will have a lot of white flocculents; Honey mixed with white sugar is slightly cloudy and no white flocculent is produced.

    3.Honey is mixed with starch or flour, and the honey appears cloudy. If you take a portion of honey, boil it over low heat, and then add a little iodine or iodine wine, if it appears blue, green or red, it proves that there is starch or flour in the honey.

    4.If the honey has been completely crystallized, you can use a smooth thick iron bar, burn it red and insert it into the honey, stop for a while to extract it, if the iron bar has attachments on it, it is said that the honey is adulterated.

    5.From the crystalline identification of honey, the crystal transparency of honey is poor, the crystal layer is soft, if you use your fingers to slowly twist and push the crystals, there is no feeling of sand grains, and the crystals will melt quickly when you put them in your mouth. The honey mixed with sucrose is transparent, the crystal laminate is hard, and the crystalline grains are pushed by twisting with your fingers, which is not easy to twist, and is not easy to dissolve in the mouth, and has a grit feeling.

    Artificially made honey is made by adding chemical drugs such as sulfuric acid, soda ash, hydrochloric acid, tartaric acid and other substances to white sugar water, caramel or waste sugar water from sugar mills. Characteristics of various artificial honeys: only the taste of sugar, no taste of honey!

    The basis for honey drawing and not easy to break is not very comprehensive, because if the original honey is concentrated at high temperature, it will also be very viscous and drawn.

    This is one of the two in the identification, not comprehensive, so it can not be based on this, drawing is not to identify the purity of honey, the paper towel method is to identify whether honey contains water, so to identify the true and false purity of honey, but also need a more comprehensive and multi-faceted identification to determine whether it is pure honey.

    Honey purity cannot be judged by drawing.

    Because honey is a pure natural material component, its main component is sugar, which belongs to the supersaturated solution of sugar, and the viscosity of sugar is very large; In addition, sugar has a certain degree of retention, so there will be a phenomenon that honey will be drawn. Honey drawing is directly related to the sugar content of honey and the temperature of the environment.

    But some honey will not be drawn, honey drawing and honey sugar content, environmental temperature is related, the first possibility is that the Baumé degree of honey is too low, the sugar content is small, the water content is too large, so the honey will not be drawn, dripping down like water;

    The second reason is that the Baumé content of honey is too high, and if the ambient temperature is too low, then the honey will not produce stringing. Therefore, it is not possible to judge whether the honey is pure or not by drawing.

    There are many consumers who have a certain understanding of the authenticity of honey, and can name some methods, such as dripping honey onto paper to see if it can penetrate, or dipping honey with chopsticks to see the drawing, if not drawing, they think that the honey is fake honey, and they don't know where these methods of identifying the authenticity of honey come from.

    Looking at the drawing of honey can only identify the amount of water in honey, for example, if the water content of honey is small, the honey will be long and not easy to break, while the honey will be very thin if the water content is large, and the drawing will be short and easy to break. This can only roughly judge the level of honey Baumé, but not the authenticity of honey.

    Baumé is an indicator of the water content of honey and an important indicator of honey quality, but it cannot indicate the authenticity of honey. Let's take an analogy, not only the honey concentrated and processed by the concentrator, the Baumé degree is generally very low, and it is already very good to reach 41 degrees, even if it reaches 41 degrees, it is not honey that is not broken. The honey that has been concentrated and processed by the factory will not be broken, because these compresses have artificially increased the Baumé degree to more than 42 degrees.

    【Mo Yi Honey Honey】Friendly reminder.

    Methods for distinguishing the authenticity of honey steps.

    Look at gloss and viscosity.

    Real honey has a great viscosity and a brighter luster. If it is fake honey, it has a dull yellow color and a thinner viscosity. When buying, you can observe it with your eyes, first look at its luster, and then shake it to see its viscosity, if the honey is dull in color and thin in viscosity, then this honey must be fake, it is best not to buy it.

    Turn the honey bottle upside down.

    To distinguish between real and fake honey, you can turn the honey bottle upside down, and the real honey slides slowly due to the thick honey during the honey inversion, and there will be no large number of bubbles when the bottle mouth is inverted. Fake honey is fast during the inversion process, and bubbles are produced.

    Now some producers are more shrewd, in order to confuse our eyes, they deliberately do not use transparent utensils, so that we can not see the consistency of honey, then we can hold the honey in our hands and shake it, if the sound is louder, and the shaking amplitude is larger, it must be inferior honey, so we should be cautious about buying.

    Grind honey granules.

    Grinding honey can also distinguish the authenticity of honey. Pour a little honey on your fingers and grind each other between your two fingers, if it is real honey, it will not have small bumps when grinding, honey is more delicate, while fake honey will have small bumps when grinding, and it is difficult to grind off.

    The tongue is a sensitive part of the human body, and it can be verified with the tongue when distinguishing between real and fake honey. Real honey has a strong honey taste, and it is relatively pure, the composition of sugar is also relatively moderate, not too sweet, and there is a slight sweetness in the aftertaste, and the taste of real honey is more delicate and silky when eating.

    Fake honey has more sugar, the honey taste is lighter, it is sweet in the mouth without honey, and there will be small particles when eating, small particles are caused by too much sugar, if it is real honey with less sugar, there will be no small pimples.

    Honey with a normal shelf life will not deteriorate in the natural environment, while fake honey will deteriorate in the natural environment, especially honey with the separation of the upper and lower layers, such honey must have added other ingredients, so it is best not to eat it when this happens.

    The method of using the shelf life to distinguish the authenticity of honey is not commonly used, because it requires a certain period of time to distinguish the authenticity of honey, and it is best to choose other methods to distinguish it, so as not to consume too much fake honey.

    Honey brushed. If it is fake honey, it is difficult to pull out the filament, even if it is pulled out, it will not be very long, and it will not return to the original point when it is broken, if this happens, it is best not to eat, because some substances mixed with fake honey will harm human health.

    Go to a large supermarket to buy honey.

    When buying honey, you can choose large supermarkets, which have strict control over inferior products, and the probability of inferior honey is relatively small, which is convenient for people to buy real honey. In fact, this is also a good way to distinguish real and fake honey, and it is not easy to buy inferior honey, so people can use it with confidence.

    The concentration of high-quality natural ripe capping honey is about 42 degrees, which can be drawn but not very long, and the crystallized honey cannot be drawn. Honey at 41% and below 41% had no significant stringing.

    The concentrated honey that has been dehydrated in the honey processing plant can reach 43°-45°, and when it is poured down, it is in the shape of a lump, and if it is poured slowly, the drawing will be very long, and the maltose we ate when we were children can also be drawn, but it is not honey. Therefore, it does not make any sense for pure natural honey to distinguish the authenticity of honey by drawing. The honey of the acacia flowers in the Shengran Honey Garden is not bad, and the honey collected by their bee farm in Yan'an tastes better than the honey in the supermarket.

    In addition, pure natural honey has never been as thick as the supermarket's processing and concentrated honey, and foolish beekeepers will mix it with water, and people with a little common sense know that once honey is mixed with water, the temperature is high in summer, and it will deteriorate in less than a week.

    Pure honey is a thick, viscous gelatinous liquid, bright and moist, all kinds of honey have a fixed color, such as linden honey is light amber, clear and translucent, sunflower honey is amber, the color of mixed nectar is not fixed, generally yellow-red.

    Stir vigorously in the honey with chopsticks a few times, lift the chopsticks and see that the pure honey is bright and transparent, while the adulterated honey is cloudy. Real honey has strong light transmittance and uniform color; Inferior honey is cloudy and has impurities. The new honey is light amber and transparent**.

    Honey is added to boiling water, stirred slightly, and melted without precipitation, which is good honey; Inferior honey is not easy to dissolve, and there is precipitation.

    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 one point of honey, add two points of cold boiled water and four points of 95 points of 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.

    The higher the purity of honey, the greater its cohesion, when you see whether the honey is pure or not, you can find a piece of white sketch paper at home, and then drop a few drops of honey on the sketch paper, if it does not spread, it means that the purity of this honey is relatively high, if it spreads quickly, it means that there is gouache or other sugar mixed in this honey.

    2. You can also use the chemical reaction between some substances to see whether the honey is pure or not, such as flour and starch are some important substances mixed into the honey, after these substances are added to the honey, its color changes greatly, and the sweetness in the taste will be reduced.

    3. In addition to moisture, flour and starch, there are many substances that people can't say are added to the honey, at this time, you can use pyrometry to see if the honey is pure or not, it is best to prepare a small piece of iron wire, put it on the fire and burn it red directly into the honey, take it out after five seconds, see if the wire is not adherent, the real high purity of honey will not be adsorbed on the surface of the wire.

    I've been looking at bees for 20 years, and to be honest, it's really hard to distinguish;

    But if you've eaten pure natural real honey before, you have no problem telling;

    Because honey no matter what kind of flower it is, it has the unique taste of honey; It is different from the floral fragrance added by post-processing;

    And the methods said on the Internet can't be completely distinguished, because there are too many types of honey, and the concentration varies greatly, so those methods can only be used as a reference;

    If the crystals are as fine as the big oil made from fat, it means that it is true, and you can get a little bit to pick it up by hand, if there is no sand on the fingers of the pinching, it means that it is pure honey, and now open the bottle or a faint floral fragrance means that the honey is relatively pure, and it should not be a rancid sour smell.

    1) Take a clean glass, put a small amount of honey, add 5 times the warm boiling water and stir thoroughly, no sediment is preferred.

    2) Honey will become solid after being stored in an environment of 4 to 14 degrees Celsius for a period of time, which is a physical phenomenon of honey. The crystalline body is pricked with chopsticks, it is very soft, and the fake honey can't be pierced. The real honey is pinched by hand, and its crystals dissolve quickly. Fake honey has the feeling of being in the hands and melts slowly or does not dissolve, the real honey crystal has a small sound of biting with teeth, while the fake honey crystal is crisp and loud.

    3) Distinguish honey mixed with starch syrup: take 1 part honey and 4 parts water, and then slowly add 95 ethanol solution, no white flocculent precipitation. If there is a flocculent precipitate, it means that it is adulterated with caramel.

    4) Distinguish between honey mixed with water and sucrose: drop the honey on white paper or straw paper, if the honey on the paper gradually seeps, it means mixed with sucrose and water;

    5) Distinguish honey mixed with starch: put a small amount of honey into a cup, add an appropriate amount of water, boil, wait for cooling, drop a few drops of iodine wine, if the color of the solution turns blue, it means that it is mixed with starch;

    6) Distinguish honey mixed with impurities: insert red-hot wire into the honey, if there is stickiness attached to the wire, it means that it is adulterated; If the wire is still smooth, it means that there are no impurities.
