Liquid Gold
From my brother, who lives in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom:
Our grandmother (or rather our mémère, born in Quebec) used to pour hot maple syrup on snow, a real treat.

We boiled enough [maple] sap to end up with a couple of pints [of syrup]. I started with 18-19 quarts of sap. I toss any ice buildup from my sap which I believe produces a more pure sap. Probably will do another boil tomorrow....Mmm. Buttery smooth. Had some over vanilla ice cream with walnuts last night.
