Maple syrup is thick, gooey. and very good on pancakes.
Some people put maple syrup on everything from ice cream to
bananas. No matter what you like it on. it always tastes sweet and
good.
Maple syrup has the name it does because it comes from
the sugar maple tree. there are many kinds of syrup that people'put
on many kinds of foods. but maple syrup is probably 'the mot
popular.
Maple syrup is made from the sap of certain maple trees.
Sap is a clear,colourless liquid that looks like water, If you taste it
you'll notice that iris a little bit sweet. but not %cry It is about as
sweet, as water with a few grains of sugar tn it Sap is like blood to a
tree and in the winter it doesn't move around very much.
During the late winter and early spring syrup producers
begin to collect sap from maple trees. The nights are cold but the
dart are usually- quite warm. This daily rise and fall of
temperatures starts the sap flowing. The sapping season lasts only a
few weeks so syrup producers are very busy collecting enough sap
from the trees to make a year's supply of syrup• ,
Syrup producers have two ways of collecting sap from
trees, One way is very old arid has been used for a hundreds of years
in Canada The producer drills a hole into the trunk of the tree and
drives a metal spout into the hole. The tree's sap drips through the
spout into a bucket which hangs from the spout. When the buckets
are full enough the producer will empty them into a large
container, This container is carried on a sled or wagon through the
maple sugar bush to a buddingtcalied a 'sugarhouse'.
The other way of collecting maple•sap is more modern
The producer drills a hole into a maple tree and puts in the hole a
plastic spout. The maple sap runs through the spout and into a tube
that joins up with one long pipe. This pipeline looks like a long hose
and carries the sap through the woods to the sugarhouse. The
producer, if he uses this method. doesn't have to collect the sap
from the buckets whenever they get full. so he saves time.
After the sap gets into the sugarhouse it is boiled in a long
shallow ran. As the water in the sap boils away the sap turns darker
and sweeter. It eventually turns into the dark. gooey syrup we
. know. The producer then lets the syrup cool and bottles it.
Same producers boil sap so much that it turns intl.) a
maple flavoured sugar. The more sap is boiled the thicker it
becomes. Maple sugar is sap that has been boiled for a very long
time.
The maple syrup we buy in stores is not usually pure
maple syrup. Sometimes it has a little bit of maple syrup rnixed with
other kinds of syrup, like corn syrup or cane sugar syrup.
Maple syrup has been made in Canada for hundreds of
years, and is such 'a delicacy that visitors to our country can't'reSist
