Like the recipe I made last night called for 3/4 ounce honey, so I used 1 ounce honey syrup. You don't have to store it in the fridge. I keep mine out on the bottom shelf and it's been fine for a few months now. 2 lbs. honey 2 cups water. It is much thinner than sugar syrup. Pours easier. I am not up for doing a taste test just yet. Maybe one day I'll try it the old way and see how the honey syrup compares to the honey in a recipe. But, it's too much work.
