Bees do it
Honey to buzz about
Watertown's Arax Market (603 Mt. Auburn Street),
known for its fresh fruits and
vegetables, also stocks its shelves with a
number of Greek imports. One of note: Attiki Honey. Derived from the thyme
flower, this honey offers a slightly different flavor than clover or
orange-blossom honey. It is also a high-density sweetener, less processed than
its American counterpart, and loaded with nature's nutrients. And, rumor has
it, it's packed with medical benefits, such as quieting coughs and clearing
congestion. A one-pound jar costs $5.49.
