Honey wears many hats in the kitchen. It’s a stalwart sweetener, but it also tenderizes meat for the juiciest pork chops, balances tangy marinades or vinaigrettes, and helps create a crackly, caramelized crust on just about anything. Plus, when stored correctly, honey lasts practically forever.
From hot honey pork chops to Ukrainian honey cake, these sweet and savory recipes are guaranteed to make a buzz in your kitchen.
