Granulated Honey is also called honey granules, powdered honey, or dried honey.

Granulated Honey is not easy to find. Known as the world's oldest sweetener, honey is one of the few foods that will never spoil.

Because of its powder-like consistency, Granulated Honey is ideal for seasoning blends because it plays nicely with other blend ingredients while keeping its sticky nature, making it a favorite ingredient, especially in sweet heat blends for chicken, fish, and pork.

Granulated honey is made in a process called co-crystallization. The honey and sugar are added in liquid form and then dried together. After the honey and sugar have been combined and dried, the finished mixture is broken up through milling, which becomes granulated honey.

Granulated honey is approximately 7% honey and 93% cane sugar.

How to Use

Use Granulated Honey as a sweetener in vinaigrettes or marinades, put it in your coffee or tea, or turn it into a honey-laced simple syrup for cocktails. It can be a substitute for sugar in baking, but you may want to tweak your recipes; some bakers find granulated honey sweeter than regular sugar, so adjust as necessary. Add a little crunch to the top of your muffins with granulated honey, or sprinkle on top of fresh fruit for a little extra zing with your cantaloupe.

We especially like to use it in rubs, and it can be added to almost any type of chile powder to create a sweet and hot flavor sensation. When the rub is activated by the heat of the grill or smoker, the granulated honey will glaze very nicely.
