I absolutely love this
dressing. It's as close as I can get to one that is served
at a local restaurant here in Bunbury. It couldn't be any easier
to make. It's totally scrumptious for dipping wedges into
and goes well with seafood and salad too.

Food Facts:
Honey is one of the oldest
sweeteners ever used. It is produced by honey
bees from the nectar of flowers. The flavour
and colour of the honey is very much dependent
on the source of the nectar and the method of
production. When bees make honey they store it
with the intention of consuming it themselves
during times when food is scarce. Humans have
been hunting for honey for over 10,000 years.
The main uses of honey are in cooking, baking
and as a spread. Honey is the main ingredient
in the alcoholic beverage mead. Because of its
properties honey preserves itself very well.
Small residues of edible honey have even been
found in the pharaoh's tombs.
Lemons originated in China.
The Chinese emperors used to like lemonade. 1
medium lemon has 18 calories. Lemons contain
phosphorous, potassium, calcium, beta carotene
and fibre. The pectin in lemons has been shown
to reduce cholesterol levels. With a spoonful
of honey added a hot lemon drink is soothing to
those who have colds and sore throats.
