What to look for on the label
Read the label before the price. Pure honey should say so clearly, and the net weight should be printed on the pack. Chamamba Pure Honey is labelled 100% pure and sold in 500 g and 1 kg sizes.
Check the name of the producer and a contact address or phone number. A business that stands behind its product will make it easy to reach them.
How pure honey looks and tastes
Natural honey is usually thick and flows slowly from a spoon. Its colour ranges from light gold to deep amber, depending on the flowers it came from.
Pure honey has a natural aroma and a taste that lingers. If a honey is very sharp, watery or tastes only of sugar, ask questions before you buy.
Keeping your honey good
Store honey in a closed jar at room temperature, away from direct sun. Keep a dry spoon in the jar so no moisture enters.
Honey can crystallise over time. This is a natural process and does not mean it has gone bad. Warm the jar gently in a bowl of warm water to soften it.

Asali safi inavyoonekana na kuonja

Asali safi ina harufu ya asili na ladha inayodumu mdomoni. Ikiwa asali ni kali sana, ni nyembamba au inaonja sukari tu, uliza maswali kabla ya kununua.
Kuitunza asali yako
Hifadhi asali kwenye chupa iliyofungwa vizuri, mahali pa joto la kawaida, mbali na jua kali. Weka kijiko kikavu ndani ya chupa ili unyevu usiingie.
Asali inaweza kuganda baada ya muda. Hii ni kawaida na haimaanishi kuwa imeharibika. Ipashe taratibu kwa kuiweka kwenye bakuli la maji ya uvuguvugu ili ilainike.
