It makes a perfect glaze for proteins and a great dressing on cooked and raw veggies. Make sure to try some of the flavored maple syrups. They are a far cry from the artificial flavors from your grocer’s shelves. These you create with 100% pure maple syrup and all natural ingredients with your very own hands.
