14) I like to substitute honey for sugar when baking. Do you have any guidelines that can help?
By experimenting, honey may be substituted for granulated sugar in baked goods, cup for cup, with the following alterations to the recipe:

• For each cup of honey used, reduce the amount of liquid in the recipe by ¼ cup.
• Add ½ teaspoon baking soda for each cup of honey used. This will neutralize honey's acidity and help the food rise.
• If the recipe contains sour cream or sour milk, however, you can forego adding baking soda.
• Reduce the oven temperature by 25 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent over-browning.
• When using honey in jams, jellies, or candies, increase the cooking temperature just a bit to allow the extra liquid to evaporate.
