These cakes were dense, generally shaped as bread loaves, and baked directly on the floor of an oven. Italian Jews disseminated these rudimentary honey cakes throughout medieval Europe. The current form of honey cake evolved over centuries, assuming its closest relation to our present concept in the late nineteenth century. Its evolution is part of the agricultural history and eating habits of Europe in which wheat emerged as the dominant grain. By the end of the seventeenth century bakers began to update the doorstopper density of honey cakes by adding eggs and oil and substituting wheat flour for bread crumbs. The result was lighter, more tender loaves. The introduction of alkaline chemical leavenings in the eighteenth century led to even lighter lekach or honey cakes.

  • Sweetener: Honey
    MOVE to the NET SWEETENER: HONEY LOG IN! 1 Read the information about honey and answer the following questions. Characteristics Before sugar was discovered, honey was the only known sweetener and it was also used to preserve foods, as a cosmetic product and for embalming. Honey is a sugary substance produced by bees from flower nectar, which is processed by enzymes contained in the saliva and the gastric juices of bees and then placed inside the hives where it turns to honey. This process is very complex and it takes 5 litres of nectar to produce 1 litre of honey. Honeys vary according to the type of flowers the nectar is collected from. They can have different fructose and glucose content, which affects the texture, colour and flavour of the honey. Colours can range from white to golden yellow, from red to brown and black nuances; the darker the colour of honey, the more intense the flavour. Common types of honey include: acacia, chestnut, lime tree, clover and heather. Nutritional facts per 100 g of product The sweetening power of honey is higher than that of sugar so smaller quantities of honey are therefore needed. Honey has purifying, calming, water 14 – 20% temperature-reducing, digestive, aperitif and antiseptic properties. protein 0.3 – 0.5 g Use Liquid or solid honey can be used in savoury dishes like lamb, duck, chicken sugar 76 – 80 g and sweet and sour sauces; but it is mainly used in sweets like: cakes, biscuits, pastries, creams, yoghurts, sweets, syrups and spicy breads. It can also sweeten calories 303 milk, herbal teas, tea and coffee.
