I'm part Mashpee Wampanoag which is part of the Algonquin nation so watching you talk about that is really cool and I was born in Buffalo NY and my mom's from Vermont so I definitely know maple Syrup or " Sinzibuckwud" 😁 actually the best maple syrup comes from sugar maples, red maple and black maples.

Growing up, my mother always used to glaze a ham with brown sugar, with pineapple slices and cloves (as I imagine many American households did). One day, I decided to glaze a ham with maple syrup and it was probably one of the best hams I've ever tasted!

The day honours the lost children and Survivors of residential schools, their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process. This year is the first year that it's a federal holiday. I was so happy to hear that first part in your video!

This is definitely a slap in the face to the many kind and generous people from the global south who have opened their hearts and homes to you in order to share their cultures and cuisines.

Do you even care that their countries have been economically and environmentally destroyed to enrich this corporation? Where are your morals?

Hello how are you doing today

I've got one more recipe for you: the Rye Old Fashioned It's basically your standard Old Fashioned recipe, with two substitutions: replace the bourbon with rye whiskey; use a teaspoon of maple syrup instead of the water-dissolved sugarcube/simple syrup. Another optional adjustment: replace the lemon peel with an orange peel.

​@@lisasolesky3255 I'm sad to say that the closest I've ever come to Wisconsin has been a three-day stay in Chicago. I'm from all the way in Europe, my rye Old Fashioned introduction was in Hamburg, northern Germany. But I feel you: ever since I was old enough to drink, it's first been all about the syrup and juice-heavy 'tropical' coctails, then vodka cocktails, then the gin craze. My neck of the woods also has an ongoing love-affair with spritzes (predominantly Aperol-based but increasingly also Lillet etc.) If you're a whiskey-drinker, you've been sh*t out of luck for decades in terms of cocktails - the best most contemporary/one-trick-pony bars have to offer you is a whiskey sour and most of those are pretty crappy because a: no egg or gum syrup available so the texture is off to begin with, b: they botch the ratios and the drink is either way too sweet or way too sour. So what are we to do? I've resigned myself to two options: either I only go to upscale, old school bars where I can be reliably certain a properly trained bartender mixes the drinks - they are stocked for Old Fashioneds and know how to assemble them, so no nasty surprises but usually pretty expensive. Alternatively, I've had great success with politely asking the staff if they'd be willing to fix me a three-ingredient cocktail that isn't on the menue, if they happen to have whiskey, bitters and sugar to hand. In case they really don't know what I'm asking for at this point, I talk the barkeeper through the process of mixing the drink and thank them profusely for humoring me.

Hot Toddy’s are great! One misconception people have is that all Scotch Whiskey is smoky. Actually, most Scotch sold in Scotland is not smoky! Brands like Glenfiddich and Glenlivet are very popular and not smoky, but more delicate. Those are the Scotch’s I would recommend for a hot toddy.

I make a coffee that tastes exactly like a gingerbread cookie. Use a medium brew of the coffee of your choice, add 1/2 tsp of stevia, 1-2 tbsp(depending on how sweet you want it) of maple syrup, add a dash of cinnamon and 1tsp or dark cocoa powder. Pour in milk of your choice and it tastes like Christmas.

Where I live in Western Massachusetts lots of local families tap their maple trees in the early spring. There are a couple of larger places to boil down the sap for others but many just do small batches in their kitchen. It's a very common gift to teachers, I always received a couple gallons at Christmas and the end of the year. I can't go back to fake maple syrup now! I definitely appreciate why it costs so much though it's something like 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of syrup! I never tried alcohol drinks with maple, now this looked like something I need to try!

Maple syrup is the nectar of the Gods! Delicious video Beryl, thank you 🍹🍹

quick pickled onions with maple syrup... slice up yer onions (doesn't matter what kind) nice and thin, stick em in your jar leaving at least an inch of head room at the top. In a sauce pan bring equal parts of vinegar of your choice and water (the amount is obviously going to depend on the size of jar you have), 1 tbsp of salt and a couple of tbsps of maple syrup to the boil (you can also add in some pickling spices like pepper corns, cardamom pods, dill seeds, mustard seeds and the like if you want, I generally don't). Fill your jar with the hot brine (leaving that same inch of head space) and seal the jar tightly. Discard any extra brine. Let stand on the counter until fully cool before refrigerating. It will last a few months in the fridge. They're tangy and crunchy and they become really quite sweet as they pickle. Great on sandwiches. I also just made Chow Chow (aka Acadian Ketchup...It's basically a green tomato and mustard pickled chutney?) using maple syrup last night. Chow Chow is worthy of a segment Beryl, it's very popular in the Maritime Provinces of Canada and in Quebec and back even made it's way down to Louisiana when the Acadians became the Cajuns and from there it even found it's way down to the Caribbean Islands. Recipes vary from region to region and family to family, but the idea behind it was to preserve the last unripened veg from your garden before the frost. Tomatoes and onions are the base ingredients, but cabbage, peppers and carrots are all common ingredients. My family we just use, green tomatoes, onions, salt, sugar, mustard, turmeric, water, vinegar and a storebought pickling spice. But as I said, I just tried it with Maple syrup yesterday. Haven't really gotten to taste it in it's prime yet, because it gets better after aging for a few weeks in the jar but when i did have a taste ,it wasn't really noticeable tbh lol.

I would so love to see you collaborate with Max Miller and/or Townsends on food history.

Maple syrup makes its way to our table with spicy sausages, kumara, pumpkin, onion and potatoes. Delicious. And all put into the oven on the same tray (though some things we microwave first haha)

Along highways and freeways you often see 'wild' apple trees that have grown from old apple cores thrown out of car windows. It always makes me happy to see them, because it's a continuation of a long tradition between our species.

I make cordials as a hobby. My Maple Magic is very popular. I use Kirkland Organic Maple Syrup and Tito’s Vodka.

I use a clean, sterilized gallon jug for storage. I run the liquid through an unbleached coffee filter as I transfer the product. It is ready to drink but the longer it sits in a cool place out of direct sunlight the better it gets. Enjoy!
