유기농 인증 메이플 시럽

이유

메이플 시럽은 설탕 단풍나무 수액을 증발시켜 농축한 것입니다. 단 한 가지 주의할 점은 거품 제거 문제입니다. 전통적인 생산자들은 끓이는 동안 거품을 조절하기 위해 소량의 우유, 크림 또는 라드를 넣기도 했지만, 대부분의 현대적인 생산 과정에서는 식물성 기름이나 기계식 거품 제거제를 사용합니다.

What is actually in it

Producing a litre of syrup takes roughly forty litres of sap boiled down, and boiling sap foams hard. Historically sugarmakers dropped in a pat of butter, a splash of cream or a piece of salt pork to break the foam — a tiny quantity, burned off, but animal-derived. Reverse osmosis and vegetable-oil or synthetic defoamers have largely replaced that in commercial operations, and organic certification under both USDA and Canadian rules prohibits animal-based defoamers, which makes organic the reliable choice for anyone who wants certainty. Grading is unrelated to vegan status: golden, amber, dark and very dark reflect harvest timing and colour, not additives, with darker grades giving stronger flavour for baking. Nutritionally maple syrup is still sugar — about 67% sucrose — but it carries manganese, zinc and a set of polyphenols absent from refined sugar, and it avoids the bone-char question that hangs over some cane sugar. Watch for the imitation aisle: 'maple-flavoured syrup' is usually glucose-fructose syrup, sometimes with butter flavour or milk derivatives.
