    I love how you don’t want to waste a drop. Feels like it’s honoring not only the work involved in producing the syrup to begin with, but also the contribution of your trees!

    Went to a maple sugar festival last year and a reenactor showed us how the early french settlers learned how to tap trees and bowl down the sap to syrup and sugar from the indigenous peoples. Very interesting and I'm glad you showed me how to do it in a modern kitchen. Maple syrup and the maple sugar add the best flavor to everything.

    My cousin taps over 200 maple trees on her property and boils it down for syrup every year. She has already begun tapping her trees. I’m not a drinker (although, I find Cocktails After Dark fascinating) but my cousin swears that pure maple sap mixed with gin is a really lovely drink. You might want to give it a try.

    A few years ago I bought a bottle of maple water from the local Korean market and it was fantastic. Then I found that people tap the trees the same way they tap them for syrup and you can get quite a bit of water and it has a subtle hint of maple taste and supposedly the water is quite healthy and good for you.

    • @GlenAndFriendsCooking
      @GlenAndFriendsCooking  2 года назад +4

      Most of the big Maple producers (Big Maple) use reverse osmosis on the raw sap to remove the majority of water to save on boil time / cost - Maple Water has become an important secondary product for that 'leftover' water.

  • @crisaghemo

    How to prevent brown sugar from clumping into a block (and release it if it's solidified already): Put a slice of bread in the container on top of the sugar.
    Sounds silly but I swear it's worked every time for me. If it's a solid chunk it took a bit to loosen once I stuck the slice, but eventually it just loosened. And any brown sugar container I've had (properly sealed of course) with a slice of bread in it has never solidified on me no matter how long it was in my cupboard. And I don't bake often so I've had one container for over a year. Absolutely no idea what sort of magic goes on for it to work, but it does work.
