MONTALCINO HONEY
There are several ways to define the honey. From the point of view of animal biology honey considered to be a food reserve only bees (and a few other insects they like) make honey because only they, among animals that feed on nectar and pollen, need to accumulate stocks of food. Risolvono the problem transforming the food fresh food in a summer long. To make a comparison with something that is more familiar to us could say that honey is the nectar as jam is fresh fruit. As food honey can be seen as a source of simple sugars and this is a highly energy and food sweetener. In this category is the only one who does not need to get any transformation from nature to our table. The legal wording, even if it's a little 'too cold, contains all the key elements to identify unambiguously the product:
"... For honey means the foodstuff that domestic bees produce nectar from flowers or secretions from shares or live plants that are on them, they bottinano, transform, combine with specific substances own store and favi in mature leaves of. "
Honey has a dual nature. The role of bees is essential in the product only to them you can make this incredible work spigolatura, collection of tiny droplets to assemble significant quantities of nectar, then be processed with a process equally minutes and patient. The raw material of departure but it is of plant origin and honey finished owes its characteristics, rather than any other way, the nature, characteristics and the initial origin of matter. The nectar is a sugary substance that plants produce their own to attract insects, which are so unaware of pollen carriers, the fertilizing element, which is transported in this way on other flowers. Plants give several different nectars and here comes the variety of product. The pollen is collected by bees, but no need for the development of honey, but as a food protein forms for the youth. In honey pollen is present only in very small quantities, as part accidental. Other material for the formation of honey is honeydew, in this case, is the lifeblood of the same plants, which eat insects such as aphids and Cochineals. The surplus of sugar substance not used by these insects is recycled by the bees.
