How to Fix Cloudy Honey (4 Steps)
Honey doesn't spoil like other foods and even if it has turned cloudy, it's still safe to eat. While you may be used to seeing clear, golden honey, cloudy honey is normal and natural. Clouding is caused by crystallization of the sugars and doesn't affect the taste or safety of the honey and is reversible. If the honey is in a jar, you can warm it on the stove. Otherwise, you can microwave it to get rid of the cloudiness.
