2. How to identify honey
One: Smell the single flower honey has the unique flower fragrance of this plant, the mixed honey has the natural flower fragrance, and the fake honey has some sucrose flavor and some spice flavor.
Two: eye view
1. Look at the concentration of honey, take a chopstick and insert it into the honey and lift it vertically. High-concentration honey drips down slowly, which is sticky and can be drawn, and can be shrunk into honey balls after breaking. False honey or honey with low concentration is the opposite. Even if the silk can be stretched, the broken silk is not elastic and will not shrink into honey beads.
2. It is advisable to drop a drop of honey on the newspaper. Pure honey with high concentration is hemispherical and difficult to soak the newspaper, while honey with low concentration or fake honey is easy to soak the newspaper.
3. Take a glass of water and add a little honey. Real honey will sink to the bottom of the cup quickly, and it will not melt easily. When it is stirred slowly with chopsticks, there will be a phenomenon of filar silk again and again. If it is fake honey, it will soon dissolve in water.
4. Looking at crystallization, the crystallization of honey is related to the plant species and temperature. Generally, pure natural honey is easy to crystallize at13-14 degrees Celsius. Honey that can be completely crystallized generally has low water content and high concentration, and is not easy to deteriorate, so it is a high-quality honey. Crystallized pure honey is twisted by hand, which feels delicate and has no sense of sand. Fake honey is not easy to crystallize, or part of it is precipitated. The precipitate is hard and not easy to crush.
Three: pure and natural honey, sweet and slightly sour, soft and delicate, refreshing and soft, with a slightly spicy throat and a long aftertaste. Although adulterated honey tastes sweet, it is mixed with sugar or spice, with weak throat feeling and short aftertaste.
Four: chemical test: the color of honey mixed with starch will turn blue when iodine solution is added. When honey mixed with maltose is added with high concentration ethanol, white flocs will appear. Honey mixed with other impurities will be inserted into honey with red-hot iron wire, which is attached with sticky substances.
Cryopreservation crystallization test: Honey will become solid after being stored at 4 to 14 degrees Celsius for a period of time, which is a physical phenomenon of honey. The crystal of real honey sticks one eye with chopsticks, which is very soft and can't be stuck with fake honey. True honey is pinched by hand, and its crystals melt quickly, while fake honey has the feeling of pinching hands, and it melts slowly or does not dissolve. True honey crystals have a low biting sound, while fake honey crystals are crisp and loud. Pour out the honey and wait for it to solidify a little. If it is true, honey will form a hexagonal structure like a honeycomb, but it is not.
In a word, there may be some errors in identifying the true and false of honey by using only one method. You can identify a kind of honey by using multiple methods at the same time. Under normal circumstances, you can judge the true and false of honey.
