Honey can add a sweet, smooth and distinctive taste to recipes.
It can also absorb and retain moisture, therefore honey tends to retard drying and staling in baked goods. For best results it is recommended you use recipes developed for using honey. With experimentation, honey can be substituted for all the sugar in some recipes. Reduce the amount of liquid in the recipe by cup for each cup of honey used in baked goods. Add about teaspoon baking soda for each cup of honey used in baked goods.
