The process of making maple syrup is a time-honored tradition that begins with the arrival of spring, when temperatures rise above freezing during the day and drop below freezing at night. This temperature fluctuation causes the sap to flow in sugar maple trees.
First, small holes are drilled into the trunks of these trees, and spouts, also known as taps, are inserted. Buckets or tubing systems are then attached to collect the sap as it flows out. The sap, which looks like clear water, contains about 2-3% sugar.
Once collected, the sap is transported to a sugar shack or evaporator house. Here, the sap is poured into large, flat pans and boiled over a wood or gas fire. As the sap boils, water evaporates, and the sap thickens and becomes sweeter. This process can take several hours and requires careful monitoring to ensure the sap does not burn and the syrup reaches the correct consistency.
The boiling process continues until the sap transforms into syrup, reaching a sugar content of about 66%. The finished maple syrup is then filtered to remove impurities and bottled while hot to ensure a sterile seal.
This entire process, from tree to table, celebrates the natural bounty of the sugar maple and the craftsmanship of those who produce this sweet, amber delight, cherished in kitchens and on breakfast tables around the world.
