Preparation
The seeds are being prepared. They must be raw. If they are bought from the market, it is good to wash them by rinsing them in water, and then to dry them on a flat surface. You can also dry them on a tray, in the oven, but not at temperatures above 40 degrees and for a short time.
⚠ Try to avoid the thermal process as much as possible, and if necessary remember: to be dry, not fried;
Put the seeds in the glass container.
Add the honey, little by little, with breaks to drain between the seeds.
After we have added the honey, we put the lid on and practically the net is ready, it only has to stay soaked for at least 1-2 weeks, in a cool, ventilated place and protected from light.
