Tire d'érable

We tried making tire d'érable, but didn't quite get the recipe right! It made for great tasting snow, but didn't get all chewy as it should have. I've now looked up the recipe and I see the maple syrup needs to boil quite a while before putting it on fresh snow. It should boil until it reaches 230 F, then put it on the snow and it should turn to "candy" which can be coiled up on a spoon or stick.

Well, even if it didn't turn out like candy, I'm sure it was just as tasty, and it looks like another memorable event for the family. Nice photo of the snow on a dish at the table! I always pictured doing that kind of thing out-of-doors. Takes a "southerner" to show us how to do things the comfortable way! mom
