The Coolest honeycomb I have ever eaten
The other day, when I wanted to do ASMR honeycomb video, I asked my boyfriend to get me one because he has a bee hive in his back yard. Italian bee hive if I understand it right.
He told me to wait till the morning because the bees are more passive in the early morning.
Then, in the morning about 8ish, he put on the suit that's almost like an astronaut out fit which I think it's hella cool. All the body parts need to be covered because you know, it makes sense that way (wink wink). He said, the suit itself costs about $200+ and I was like, 'Really?'
After that, he prepared this equipment (?) that creates smoke just to calm all the bees down even more. For what he told me, it's like the way to fool them that there's a forest fire or something like that, so the bees don't be too aggressive.
I didn't go so close but instead, asked him to take photos of the hive closely... Can't believe there are like 20,000+ of bees in that one small thingy that looks like drawers.
Luckily, there's one honeycomb that's stuck on the top of the hive, otherwise, it would be such a pain in the butt to try to take one out of the hive. He tried to clean up the wax on the surface to not make it even more difficult to deal with in the future.
We got one honeycomb out easily and it looks just beautiful and delicious!!
RAW Honey benefits:
Most of the honey you find in grocery stores is pasteurized. The high heat kills unwanted yeast, change colors and texture, removes any crystallization, and extends the shelf life. Many of the beneficial nutrients are also destroyed so I guess, raw honey is the way to go!
- A good source of antioxidants
- Antibacterial and antifungal properties
- Heal wounds
- Help for digestive issues
- Soothe a sore throat
- Treating diarrhea
- Protecting the brain
I believe there are many more. I remember using raw honey as a facial mask for smoother and softer skin as well.
