JACK WAX

Heat Maple Syrup to 230 degrees. While hot, pour on snow or crushed ice and EAT, preferably in your fingers. Traditionally, this treat was the feature of the "sugaring off" party held at the sugar house to celebrate the end of the syrup harvest.

Maple Baked Beans

Invented by Native Americans and passed onto early European settlers with variations
2 lbs. dried navy beans
1/2 lb. thick bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 medium onion, cut into squares
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons salt
2 cups boiling water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F when ready to bake. Soak dried beans overnight and precook beans. Line the bottom of a bean pot or casserole with half the bacon followed by the onion. Add cooked beans. Mix together remaining ingredients and pour over beans. If necessary, add more water to cover. Top with remaining bacon. Bake 5 to 6 hours, adding more boiling water and syrup if liquid needed.

Maple Glazed Ham

This will feed a crowd and it makes lots of leftovers
6 to 8 lb. fully cooked, bone in smoked ham
2 cups apple cider
2 cups water
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Place the ham, fat side up, in a roasting pan. Pour the apple cider and water into the bottom of the pan. Bake the ham for 1.25 hours, or until completely heated through.

In a small bowl, combine the sugar, syrup, horseradish, and mustard. Stir to blend. Remove the ham from the oven and spread the maple mixture over the ham. Bake, basting the ham with the pan liquid every 15 minutes, for 45 minutes, or until the ham has darkened and the edges of the meat are crispy. Remove from the oven, carve, and serve. For more maple flavor substitute our Indian Sugar (pure granulated maple sugar) for the brown sugar in the recipe. This can be done in most any recipe with brown sugar to add maple flavor.

Maple Glazed Chicken Wings

Chicken wings (often prepackaged) uncooked
1 Cup Maple syrup
1/2 cup maple granulated maple sugar
1/4 cup apple cider or apple juice
2 tbsp. Mustard
1/4 cup ketchup
1/2 tsp. Salt

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cook wings for 30 minutes or as directed on wing package. Combine ingredients to make mixture. Remove wings from oven and baste with mixture. Return wings to oven and cook for 20 to 30 minutes depending on desired crispness. You may remove wings during that period and baste several more times for a thicker glaze if you wish.

Maple Glazed Kielbasa

1lb. link of kielbasa
1/2 cup of Maple syrup

Slice Kielbasa and quarter each slice. Sautee the meat on medium heat in a frying pan for 20 minutes. Pour off the grease leaving the meat in the pan. Add the syrup and continue to sautee on low heat for 15 to 20 minutes tuning the chunks often. Kielbasa is ready when the syrup starts to glaze the meat. Cooking too fast burns the syrup making a poor glaze.

1/3 cup light Karo syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
