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!

How the maple turned into the sugar was one of the coolest things ive seen in a while

I am so amazed at how much sugar you got from that bottle, I never would have thought you would get that much. I grow and dry my own herbs in my garden and I fill a large cookie sheet with stems of rosemary and it barely fills a small spice jar.

Tuesday? How lucky are we? Very! Glad to know how to make the crystalline form of maple sugar. Just in case.

I wish Maple Syrup wasnt so expensive for us Americans. I would LOVE to try this!

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.

Love adding mpeg to my syrups too 😋

Next time I see this done will be the second time. I love seeing things I've never seen before. Thank you Glen.

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.

This is right down my alley. Every Christmas (because it’s the only time I can find it where I live) I have to have maple sugar candy. It’s a signature Christmas flavor for me!

Very interesting, especially for those of us who would never have the opportunity to do this. Thank you.

Love videos like this one. A technique I never knew.

now I want to make this ...i remember tapping trees when i was little with my grandparents....i bet its good coffee 😊

Cooking is magic! Take hot sticky liquid, beat the daylights out of it and voila - sugar crystals.

Congratulations on 500K subscribers!!!

I wasn't expecting a video to drop at the stroke of midnight!

One thing I miss about living in SW Ontario is going to places like Jakeman's and other maple syrup farms. One day I hope to bring my partner for a visit from BC at the right time of year so she can taste and smell what it's like to get the good stuff straight from the source!

Makes me want to try this with Store bought Maple Syrup.

There aren't many things more Canadian than this, and I'm not talking about hockey! Thanks for doing these, helps me remember some of the important things about this country.

My maternal aunt and uncle had a "sugar bush" (as they called their maple trees) on their farm in Upper Peninsula Michigan. It smelled like heaven in their syrup making shed!! (A lot of work!!)

We appreciate your description note and always recommend your videos to our friends and family. Thank you!

Early video, score! I had no idea this was how maple sugar was made, seems fairly simple.

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

That magic moment when it converts from liquid to crystals, reminds me of my high school chemistry class days.

Glad to see you aren’t the only one of the Maxwell House isn’t the only thing ‘good to the last drop’😂😂😂

So cool! I've seen how maple sugar is done on a more commercial scale but I'm fascinated by the how-to of doing it in a home kitchen (albeit a kitchen much nicer than will ever be seen in my home!). Great video.

Fascinating to watch. I like learning new things.

Some people say to add butter to jam while cooking to prevent foam from forming but in my experience it makes the jam spoil faster. I imagine the same thing would happen if you added butter maple sugar.

Here in the Deep South, that stuff is expensive. I love real Maple Syrup. Dark and Light both.

I love this idea. I put a small piece of dried bread in my golden brown sugar jar and it never gets chunky

You did not mention the true story of the Great Canadian Maple Sugar heist of 2011. Biggest heist in Canadian history.

Mmmmmmmm maple syrup is liquid gold in the culinary world imo. If I lived in Canada, you couldn’t trust me around your maple trees at tree tapping time lol Mmmmmm delicious!!!! Maple sugar sounds heavenly! I wonder if those maple pearls would be a decadent substitute for regular pearl sugar for Belgian waffles?

One trick for using those thermal probe style thermometers is to attach a binder clip to the side of the pot or pan your using and use the clip handles to hold the probe in place off of the bottom.

I will never be able to do this, but I enjoyed this so much. Thank you 💓

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.

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.

I envy anyone that has their own maple trees. That looks delish.

Can't wait to tap my trees in a few more weeks (Longer winter here in Newfoundland) but in the meantime I am going to pick up a cheap bottle of maple syrup from Costco and make this.

When he said that he gets syrup for the price of wood and propane that hit home. We tap 170 and still evey drop is precious

That exact temp is going to be elevation dependent. Since the temperature depends upon sugar content, you aiming for a specific % of sugar in the pot.

Love maple sugar (though mine is purchased). Nothing, I mean nothing, is better to sweeten porridge oats and many other things. So interesting to see how it is made. I'm in the US, but thankfully my state makes some darn good maple syrup, too. Thank you for another great video.

Congratulations on 500k subs!

Glen, you have multiple channels now. Would you ever consider another channel about your production work? Your camera gear,how you shoot, lighting, the business side, etc?

Holy moly are you lucky! I wish I could have something as amazing as Maple sugar in my life.

Now I’m craving maple fudge.

We also have maple trees my Dad taps them and boils it down and makes syrup it’s amazing

You signal spring better then Wiarton Willy :) Always well done

Cool now I know how to make maple sugar sugar. Next time I’ll buy 2 maple syrup and use one for making the sugar granules.😊💖 Thank you. Safe flying!

Making Maple Sugar KZread 16:9 4K MPEG 4 is one of the videos of all time

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.

Apples do the same thing. Though not stored long term, a piece of apple added to rock-hard brown sugar softens it right up.

Who knew it was this easy to make maple sugar? Very cool Glen!

😲Wow, that is like magic. Thank you soooo very much. Watching from Quebec, Canada

Wow, I love making things from scratch! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, it is so interesting to see how things are made.

Fascinating video! I never knew that's how maple sugar was made

Good show as always thank you

Fascinating!

This is amazing! Thank you!

Learn something new today, always thought maple sugar was made same way brown sugar was with molasses only adding the maple syrup to the sugar. I bet your extra mix would also be good to add to confectionary sugar when making an icing. Thank you

So useful! I can't believe I've never done given the amount of maple syrup we have. Thanks!!

Dang, this looks great! I'm probably never going to get the opportunity to try this for myself, but I always enjoy seeing this sort of content. If the opportunity arises later, then I can trot out the knowledge. EDIT to add: In addition to good tea-sweetener, those little nuggets of Maple Candy crystals would also probably make an amazing Old-Fashioned cocktail!

I bet that sugar would work stunningly in pancakes, waffles, and French toast.

I'll wait for the MKV version. ❤️

This was brilliant and invaluable. Thank you!

Amazing! I've learned so many things from you! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for explaining in a clear and concise way. I learned something new and interesting.

Maple sugar cotton candy is absolutely heavenly.

Awesome video thanks ❤

Glen you're such a great dude. God bless you.

Love your video. Now to get the energy and time to do this. Thank you.

Wow! So easy. Thanks friend. Going to try this today.

What a cool bit of info! I will try this one day.

You're right when you say this would be too expensive for a lot of people. I'm one of those people. But this was so great to watch, and see you get enjoyment from it. Good on you!

This video has made me insanely jealous. Wish I lived in Canada

Love your videos. Keep up the great work!

Puts me in mind of the packages my grandmother's family would send to her with her favorite tea and maple sugar inside.

So I made this and it turned out great! Thanks, Glen ⭐️

You are so lucky to have sugar maples in your yard! Good for you that you use every drop of it!!

Excellent job 👏 👍 👌 🙌

Your own maple syrup/sugar. What a satisfying, rewarding and really awesome experience. Very cool.

This is so timely. I have a bunch of recipes that call for maple sugar. Now I can make my own. Thanks!

Tu canal es de los mejores canales de cocina ¡Gracias! 🙌🏾👌🏽👋🏽

I've done this. So cool to know that it's actually Maple Sugar. Not messed up maple fudge. Which we did purposely a few times a year. But, never did I know what my mother used it for. Thank you Glen for showing us how to make Maple Sugar. 🥰

That was amazing 👏🥰

Very cool, I always wondered how this was done!

Amazing 👏

Love your videos Glen! take care :)

Thanks!

That was cool. I initially thought you were going to make it the same way as brown sugar process. I learned something today.

I bet that leftover maple sugar water would be good spritz on a brisket or ribs

Maple and maple sugar are amazing! Perfect in coffee. 🤓
