In Doy’s garden
Log it in Doydum and a row of pumpkins sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.
Honey is drizzled over yogurt, pancakes and kaymak, stirred into tea and used in baking. Turkey has many local honeys, from the pine honey of the Aegean coast to dark chestnut honey from the Black Sea.
Honey is heavy for its size, so a generous drizzle often weighs more than a tablespoon; weighing once helps.
