We get our maple syrup from Burton's Maplewood Farm in Indiana. Their grade B syrup is a great addition to our maple pecan cookies that we see through the winter.

We use Tim Burton's Maple Syrup from his farm in Southern Indiana. We visited the farm last year, it was after the harvest, but just walking through the majestic Maple trees is cool. We use his Sorghum also. We use the syrup in the Lacquer for our Aged Moulard Duck Breast with Duck Fat fried Potatoes, Foie Gras and Huckleberries as well as a drizzle for Squash soup. It is rich, full of flavor and very consistent in quality. Tim is Mr. Maple Syrup!

We're serving chicken & butternut squash waffles at brunch and serving a Cajun maple syrup with it. I lived in the Maine mountains for 5 years and have a friend who taps trees and sends me syrup - lucky me!
