sap boil
March 21st, 2011
We went to a old fashioned sap boil last night. No fancy, shiny evaporators, just a wood fire and an old cake pan filled with sap. And lots of beautiful food– even brats boiled in sap! which is genius and ridiculously delicious.
After running and talking and drinking and shivering, we came in from the cold and had some delicious, smokey and sweet maple syrup on our yogurt for dessert. It doesn’t get better than that.
Posted in the everyday.
We have the same tulip bowls! Aren’t they lovely.
Oh wow. I can only imagine what it was like. Ive actually never heard of this process and probably need more information! My son is obsessed with maple syrup though. :)
Ooh! Homemade maple syrup.
Sounds yummy.
ha ha ha – I totally read “Brats” (as in annoying children) rather than brats (a yummy sausage). I thought WHAT! they boiled children? I might need more coffee this morning! This looked fun – brats and all!
