All honey will crystalize. The only question is how long before it does. Crystalization is a perfectly natural process. Honey is a saturated solution of a mixture of sugars, mainly fructose and glucose. The exact proportion of these depends on the flowers on which the bees have been foraging. The higher the proportion of glucose, the quicker the honey will crystalize. It is possible to re-liquify crystalized honey by warming it, but this must be done with great care. Loosen the jar lid, but do not remove it, and put the jar into a bath of warm water no hotter than you can bear to keep your hand in. If you overheat it you will spoil the flavour. Never add water to honey in an attempt to liquify it. If you do it won't keep and will start to ferment.

How can you keep honey from crystalizing?

To prevent honey from crystallizing, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. You can also gently warm crystallized honey by placing the jar in warm water until the crystals dissolve, but avoid heating it too much as this can alter the flavor. Mixing in a small amount of warm water can also help dissolve the crystals.

How do you make honey clear again?

Honey is a supersaturated sugar solution. Clouding and granulation is a perfectly natural process. There is nothing wrong with the honey, it is just the sugars crystalizing out of the solution. Honeys from certain flowers are particularly prone to crystalisation.To make the honey a clear liquid again, heat it GENTLY by sitting the jar, with the lid loosened, in a bowl of hot water, no hotter than you can bear to keep your hand in. Be careful not to get any water in the honey. Raise the temperature of the honey slowly to a maximum of 60oC (140oF). You may need to keep the honey warm for up to half an hour while the sugar crystals dissolve.Do not use a microwave or the dry heat of an oven or by putting the honey in a saucepan. If you do this you will almost certainly overheat the honey which will partially caramelize the sugars and spoil the flavour, making it taste burnt.
