Ingredients:
- 750ml or 3 cups of maple syrup, grade A
- A pinch of salt, optional
- ¼ tsp of vegetable oil, optional
Directions:
Step 1
Fill a large bowl with ice, then place a medium-sized saucepan on top, and add more ice around the sides of the pan as well. Grab another medium saucepan, then place it on a stove over medium heat, and add in the maple syrup, vegetable oil, and salt. Bring them to a boil and make sure to keep an eye on them, then cook the syrup without disturbing it for about 16 to 18 minutes or until the temperature reaches 235°F.

Step 2
Working quickly, pour the syrup into the saucepan on the ice bath, then let it cool down without stirring for about 15 minutes, and once its temperature reaches 100°F, remove the saucepan from the ice bath. Start stirring the syrup with a spoon at a constant and steady pace, between 5 to 15 minutes the syrup will start to lighten in color which means you’re about halfway there. Once it loses its shine and starts to feel like a thick batter, stop stirring, then quickly pour it into a jar, and make sure to scrape the sides of the pan well.
