Herb-infused Honey Pots

Makes 3 jars Sauces and accompaniments

Ingredients

  • 5-6 heads fresh edible lavender, washed and dried thoroughly
  • 1-2tbsp dried rose petals
  • 3-4 fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs, washed and dried thoroughly
  • 750ml pale clear honey, such as acacia

Method

Sterilise three jars and leave to dry. Put the lavender in one jar, the rose petals in another and the thyme and rosemary sprigs in the third, and top up with the honey.

Seal the jars with lids and store in a cool, dark place for 1 month for the flavours to infuse and intensify. Serve with toast or bread and butter, and store in the fridge once opened.
