    From juice of sugar maple to syrup

    For a long time, the juice of the sugar maple trees has been processed into syrup and is known as a natural sugar substitute. The maple syrup is versatile. Wherever honey or sugar is used, maple syrup can be used as a substitute. And even with savory dishes, the maple syrup can be used as a dressing for salad, for marinating with meat or just for breakfast bacon. The harvest is limited to the end of February until April. The nights are still cold and during the day the floors are slowly heated by the sun`s rays. Then the starch that has accumulated in the trees turns into sugar. So that the harvest of the syrup can be started. The harvest is quite simple and has not changed over the years. The maple trees are drilled and a tap is inserted directly into the tree, so that the maple juice can flow directly into a bucket or passes through hoses into a collecting container. In order to be able to harvest each year, no more than forty liters per tree should be harvested. To exclude fermentation, the production of maple syrup must begin quickly.
