Zubereitung von Homemade Cloverleaf Honey
- Gather 4 cups of fresh clover blossoms and 2 cups of fresh rose petals. (Ensure they are pesticide-free)
- Carefully remove all green stems from the clover and rose blossoms.
- Gently wash the clover and rose petals thoroughly under cool running water.
- Drain the blossoms completely.
- Pat the blossoms dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Place the dried blossoms in a large metal bowl and set aside.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 4 cups of granulated sugar, 1 cup of water, and 1/4 teaspoon of alum. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
- Stir the mixture constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Continue to boil the mixture without stirring, until it reaches 220°F (104°C) on a candy thermometer.
- Carefully remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Slowly pour the hot sugar syrup over the clover and rose petals in the bowl, ensuring all blossoms are coated.
- Let the mixture stand for 45 minutes, allowing the blossoms to infuse the syrup.
- Line a fine-mesh sieve with two layers of cheesecloth and set it over a large bowl.
- Pour the clover and rose petal mixture through the cheesecloth, pressing gently to extract as much liquid as possible.
- Discard the used blossoms.
- Pour the honey into sterilized jars, leaving a small headspace.
- Store the honey in the refrigerator.
- Do not use any blossoms that have been treated with chemicals.
