MAPLE AF
As Maple As it Gets
Maple syrup is a syrup made from the sap of maple trees. In
cold climates, these trees store starch in their trunks and
roots before winter; the starch is then converted to sugar
that rises in the sap in late winter and early spring. Maple
trees are tapped by drilling holes into their trunks and
collecting the sap, which is processed by heating to
evaporate much of the water, leaving the concentrated syrup.
Maple syrup was first made by the Indigenous peoples of
North America. The practice was adopted by European
settlers, who gradually changed production methods.
Technological improvements in the 1970s further refined
syrup processing. Virtually all of the world's maple syrup
is produced in Canada and the United States. The Canadian
province of Quebec is the largest producer, responsible for
70 percent of the world's output; Canadian exports of maple
syrup in 2016 were C$487 million (about US$360 million),
with Quebec accounting for some 90 percent of this
total.[1][2]
Maple syrup is graded based on its colour and taste. Sucrose
is the most prevalent sugar in maple syrup. In Canada,
syrups must be made exclusively from maple sap to qualify as
maple syrup and must also be at least 66 percent sugar.[3]
In the United States, a syrup must be made almost entirely
from maple sap to be labelled as "maple", though states such
as Vermont and New York have more restrictive definitions.
Maple syrup is often used as a condiment for pancakes,
waffles, French toast, oatmeal, or porridge. It is also used
as an ingredient in baking and as a sweetener or flavouring
agent. Culinary experts have praised its unique flavour,
although the chemistry responsible is not fully understood.c
