Honey (Are U Coming
Honey is a sweet and viscous substance made by several species of bees, the best-known of which are honey bees. Honey is made and stored to nourish bee colonies. Bees produce honey by gathering and then refining the sugary secretions of plants (primarily floral nectar) or the secretions of other insects, like the honeydew of aphids. This refinement takes place both within individual bees, through regurgitation and enzymatic activity, and during storage in the hive, through water evaporation that concentrates the honey's sugars until it is thick and viscous. Honey bees stockpile honey in the hive. Within the hive is a structure made from wax called honeycomb. The honeycomb is made up of hundreds or thousands of hexagonal cells, into which the bees regurgitate honey for storage. Other honey-producing species of bee store the substance in different structures, such as the pots made of wax and resin used by the stingless bee. Honey for human consumption is collected from wild b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Honey Dipper
A honey dipper (also called a honey dripper, honey wand, honey stick, honey spoon, or honey drizzler) is a kitchen utensil used to collect viscous liquid (generally honey or syrup) from a container, which is then dispensed at another location. Description The tool is often made of Woodturning, turned wood. Besides the handle, the tool consists of equally spaced grooves. Often, the grooves descend in circumference on each new groove. The utensil is sometimes made of plastic, stainless steel, silver-plated brass, silicone, ceramic, or glass. Some users prefer wood or another soft material, which is less likely to chip a glass or porcelain cup. Use One method of using the tool is to dip the grooved end into the liquid, rotate the handle into a horizontal position, then slowly twirl the handle between the thumb and fingers while in transport, as the concentric grooves help to minimize dripping. When the twirling motion is stopped, the honey will collect on the lower parts of the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
