Subbing Honey For White Sugar - BarbaraS - 04-28-2015
Hey All,
I'm going to make a chicken dish tonight that calls for 1/2 cup of sugar and would like to sub honey instead. I know that will change the flavor of the dish a bit, but I'm mixing the sugar with soy sauce, so I think it will improve the flavor.
Does anyone know how much honey I should use instead of 1/2 cup of sugar?

1/4 cup.

Hmmmm, my chart says to reduce by 25% - you may want to just play till you get what you like. good luck.

Blane wins!
I used a little over 1/4 cup and it turned out good.
BTW, having a teaspoon of local honey daily for about a year has really helped me with my springtime allergies. I'm not the basket case this year like I was last year.

I've heard about it, but my allergies have actually improved over the past five years, so I've never tried it. I'm so glad it's working for you, Barbara!
