Both around the world and in our home state of Vermont, honey is celebrated for its versatility, history, and endless health benefits. At Runamok, we decided to take honey’s capability in the kitchen a step further, utilizing our years of experience perfecting Infused Maple Syrup to create a line of Infused Honey– with excellent results, we might add!
This line of Infused Honey is complex, delicious, and incredibly versatile. But how do you incorporate them in your favorite recipes? Check out our suggestions below.
1. Hibiscus Berry Triple Cream Yogurt
For a flavorful breakfast featuring the best Vermont has to offer, try our Hibiscus Berry Triple Cream Yogurt. The recipe features a combination of vanilla yogurt (we recommend Cabot’s Triple Cream Vanilla Bean), Runamok Hibiscus Flower Infused Honey, fresh fruit, and the toppings of your choice.
2. Macaroons with Hibiscus Honey Buttercream
For the chefs among us, it may be time to give our Macaroons with Hibiscus Honey Buttercream a try. While this recipe is not for the faint of heart, when done right, it’s a satisfying crowd-pleaser. Fans of our Runamok Hibiscus Infused Honey delight in its addition to the buttercream.
3. Popovers with Salted Honey Butter
The perfect accompaniment to any meal, Popovers with Salted Honey Butter are full of air on the inside and crispy on the outside. In this take on a classic recipe, we combined our Lemon Verbena Infused Honey with soft butter and a hint of salt to create a light, fluffy texture that’s simply irresistible.
4. Saffron Honey Butter Glazed Carrots
Amplify this classic veg with our Saffron Infused Honey when you try Saffron Honey Butter Glazed Carrots. This simple dish is a breeze to make, and serves as both a delicious side as well as an addition to dishes such as stir frys and salads.
5. Whipped Ricotta with Saffron Honey
In need of a Mediterranean-inspired side? Give our Whipped Ricotta with Saffron Honey a try. This side can be whipped up (pun intended) in just minutes and pairs perfectly with your favorite loaf of fresh bread.
6. Lemon Honey Garlic Butter
What’s better than butter? Lemon Honey Garlic Butter, that’s what. This flavorful addition to all of your grilled creations comes from our friend Kevin at @coastalgrilling, and combines preserved lemons with Lemon Verbena Infused Honey, garlic, butter, and spices for a decadent honey butter.
7. Hibiscus Blueberry Snacking Cake
What’s a snacking cake? You know the type– the cake that, when left on the countertop, gets gobbled up all day long. The Hibiscus Blueberry Snacking Cake from our friends at SKORDO, a cooking shop in Portland, Maine, uses our Hibiscus Flower Infused Honey to create a sweet and tangy flavor.
8. Honey Tea Cake
A tea cake literally made with tea, our Honey Tea Cake brings flavor to the table any time of year. While we prefer to use either our Lemon Verbena Infused Honey or Orange Blossom Honey, any of our line of sweet honeys can be used in the recipe.
9. The Elvis
It’s said that Elvis’ favorite sandwich featured peanut butter and bananas. Our spin on the classic adds Hibiscus Flower Infused Honey to the iconic combination, creating a sweet, tangy flavor.
10. Roasted Veggies with Za’Atar and Saffron Honey
An easy weeknight dish or main event, our recipe for Roasted Veggies with Za’Atar and Saffron Honey is sure to impress. Spices including oregano, sesame seeds, sumac, and salt are balanced out by our Saffron Infused Honey for a dish that elevates everyday vegetables.
