Since ancient times our ancestors have been using honeys as anti-bacterial and preservative. In Roman times they used honey in winter to cure and preserve the meat in order for it not to spoil and give it a longer lifespan. They would coat the meat with honey, seal it in an air-tight container and store it in a cool place. There are also records of honey being used for meat preservation in \u0415g\u0443\u0440t, \u0410\u0455\u0455\u0443r\u0456\u0430 and \u0430n\u0441\u0456\u0435nt Gr\u0435\u0435\u0441\u0435.<\/p>\n

Aside from its antibacterial property and delectable taste honey also provides other health benefits such as:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Reducing risk of heart disease and some cancers.<\/li>\n
  2. Helping with ulcer treatment and other gastrointestinal disorders.<\/li>\n
  3. Improving athletic performance due to its ability to maintain glycogen levels and improve recovery time compared to other sweeteners.<\/li>\n
  4. Relieving coughs and reducing throat irritation.<\/li>\n
  5. Helping regulate blood sugar.<\/li>\n
  6. Healing wounds and burns.<\/li>\n
  7. Helping boost and strengthen the immune system.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    How to make Orange-and-Honey Glazed Pork Chops<\/h3>\n

    Prep Time: 2 hrs 10 mins<\/p>\n

    Cook Time: 15 mins<\/p>\n

    Ingredients<\/b><\/p>\n

    2 Pittman & Davis Navel Oranges<\/a> (1 zested and juiced, 1 cut into 8 wedges)<\/p>\n

    1\/4 cup white-wine vinegar<\/p>\n

    3\/4 cup honey, preferably orange blossom<\/p>\n

    Salt and pepper<\/p>\n

    4 bone-in pork chops (about 8 ounces each, 1 inch thick)<\/p>\n

    5 sprigs rosemary<\/p>\n

    Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. In a bowl, mix together orange<\/a> juice, zest, honey, vinegar and \u00bc teaspoon of pepper. Using a shallow dish or zip-lock bag put in the pork, orange wedges and rosemary. Coat with the prepared marinade. Refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours or for a little more flavor leave in the fridge overnight.<\/li>\n
    2. After marinating take out pork, orange wedges and rosemary and transfer to a wire rack. Place on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Use salt and pepper to season the pork. Use a small saucepan to simmer marinade for 5 minutes over medium heat until the mixture is reduced to half.<\/li>\n
    3. With the wire rack set in the upper 3rd of oven, heat to broil and broil orange wedges and pork for 3 minutes. Turn over the pork and brush with the simmered marinade. Add rosemary. Broil pork for 5 to 7 minutes until it is slightly charred and well cooked. Brush with remaining marinade and serve.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4616,"menu_order":0,"template":"","tags":[],"cuisine-recipe-category":[52],"cuisine-recipe-course":[],"cuisine-recipe-cuisine":[],"class_list":["post-4615","cuisine-recipe","type-cuisine-recipe","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cuisine-recipe-category-meats-and-main-courses"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cuisine-recipe\/4615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cuisine-recipe"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cuisine-recipe"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4615"},{"taxonomy":"cuisine-recipe-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cuisine-recipe-category?post=4615"},{"taxonomy":"cuisine-recipe-course","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cuisine-recipe-course?post=4615"},{"taxonomy":"cuisine-recipe-cuisine","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog2.pittmandavis.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cuisine-recipe-cuisine?post=4615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
