    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!

    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.

    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.

    I love this. My late father used to tap trees on his hunting property. He made a boiling system -welded up a barrel into a cooking vessel and was able to tap quite a few trees every year. For many, many years I had ample maple syrup. I might have to g I’ve this a try even though I have to purchase the syrup= it just looks like something fun I need to try

    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.
