The holidays are over and I must say that I'm so ready to get back to work. It's still winter outside and this winter as every other winter I crave one thing more then anything. Honey. I think it must be from my childhood when my grandmother gave me hot milk with honey. She always did that at wintertime to keep the flue and cold away. And it kinda works, knock on wood. No flu or cold yet this winter. A great way to use honey is this pizza. I just love the mix of the sour chevre and the sweet honey. And try to add some honey to your pizza dough, it turns out crispy and golden.
