How to keep the rest
To maintain its quality, store the honey in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and contamination. If crystallization occurs, it is a natural process and does not affect the quality; simply warm the jar gently in warm water to restore its liquid state.
