Recipe: Homemade Manuka Honeygar and its uses

Uses – breaks down fats and oils, cleanses the entire digestive tract ridding it of bacteria and adds good enzymes to the stomach. Kills sugar cravings. Many people also believe and swear that it alleviates the symptoms and slows down the progression of all forms of arthritis.

Uses with Food
Is delicious on it’s own as a salad dressing and for adding to kumara, potatoes and rice and avocadoes or can be mixed with your favourite oil and condiments.

Make your own Basic Recipe, like this one which will keep for years in the cupboard in the same glass container:

You will need:

• 175gms of active Manuka Honey

• 25ml of cloudy naturally fermented un-pasteurised apple cider vinegar (There are quite a few varieties in the health departments of supermarkets, orchards, specialist health and organic food shops. I find that the more local supplier the less it costs and remember it should be quite cloudy)

Put the honey into a glass or pottery mixing bowl and slowly add the vinegar stirring all the time. Once the honey is more or less dissolved pour back into the 750 ml bottle using a funnel. Keep in a dark cupboard and shake before use

Favourite Recipe - Simple Rice Salad:

• 3 cups of COOKED brown, red or wild rice.

• 1 large or 2 small avocados

• 2 chopped fresh tomatoes

• Level tablespoon of Pine nuts (optional)

• Rock Salt and Black Pepper (I use Himalayan Rock Salt it is more mineral supplement than a sodium addition and has a slightly sweet flavour)

• Salad Greens

Mix ingredients together and pour over the Honeygar to taste. It is delicious as meal on its own. It also does not need oil as the avocados complete that part of the flavouring.
