Try Tupelo In Your Entr E

Patrons of Shipwreck Raw Bar, located in St. Joe Beach in Florida’s Gulf County, know exactly how well tupelo honey can add delicious flavor to entrées. One of the establishment’s most popular dinner items is its “Bee Sting Shrimp,” a dish that’s made of shrimp sautéed in a spicy tupelo honey sauce.

“If you’ve ever been stung by a bee, there’s a bit of a burn at first—that actually feels pretty good after that. That’s the way ‘Bee Sting Shrimp’ is. When you first bite down, you notice the spicy burn, but then the mellow sweetness of the tupelo honey takes over,” says Shipwreck Raw Bar owner Tony Whitfield.

The dish was added to the menu in order to incorporate locally produced tupelo honey into Shipwreck Raw Bar’s offerings. And another of its menu options is “Sweet Potato With Cinnamon Tupelo Butter.” Yum!
