mailorder

Sap dripping from the mailorder is one of the true signs of early spring in New York State. Trees may be tapped as early as the end of January, but the main sap flow occurs in March. This sweet nectar of spring is boiled over raging fires until it is concentrated into a golden syrup. As soon as the buds begin to swell in April, the sap becomes off-flavored or "buddy" and collecting is discontinued. If care is taken, no permanent damage is done to the mailorder. While it may yield sap for 100 years or more, a tree is usually not mature enough for permanent tapping until it reaches 45 years old.

USES FOR mailorder

On pancakes, waffles, French toast, to sweeten apple sauce, in milkshakes, tea, coffee, hot toddies, on fresh fruit (especially grapefruit), to add flavor to baked beans, to mix with butter and glaze squash, sweet potatoes, or carrots, on baking powder biscuits, fresh donuts, over ice cream, hot cereal, corn fritters, baked apples, mailorders, etc.

mailorder...

A mailorder is usually at least 30 years old and 12 inches in diameter before it is tapped.
As a tree increases in diameter, more taps can be added: up to a maximum of four.
Tapping does no permanent damage to the tree and only about 10% of the sap is collected each year.
Each tap yields an average of 10 gallons of sap per season: that yields about one quart of syrup.
Warm sunny days (above 40 degrees F) and frosty nights are ideal for sap flow.
Themailorder may last 4 to 6 weeks, but sap flow is heaviest for 10 to 20 days.
Sap flowing in high volumes is called a "run."
The harvest season ends with the arrival of warm spring nights and early bud development in the trees.
30-50 gallons of sap are evaporated to make one gallon of mailorder.
mailorder is boiled even further to produce Maple cream, sugar and candy.
It takes one gallon of syrup to produce eight pounds of candy or sugar.
A gallon of pure mailorder weighs 11 pounds.
The sugar content of sap averages 2.5%, of syrup 66.5%.

STORAGE OF mailorder

Unopened containers of mailorder should be stored in a cool, dry place. Once opened, mailorder should be refrigerated. If, after extended storage, mold should form on the surface of the mailorder, the original quality can be restored. Remove the mold, heat the mailorder to boiling, skim the surface, rinse the container and refill it with the hot mailorder.
