Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Haedrich, a Country Journal columnist, loves maple syrup: in Maple Cream Biscuits, in Maple Apple Pie, and, of course, on Banana Nut Pancakes and Death by Chocolate Waffles. This is no doubt the definitive guide to the topic, with lots of maple syrup facts and good recipes; larger collections could use the paperback.-- JS

4.0 out of 5 stars surprisingly tasty, August 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Maple Syrup Cookbook (Paperback)

I bought this book as a 'gag gift' for my wife, a New England native who LOVES maple syrup. Turns out it is a really wonderful cookbook about "cooking" with maple syrup (anybody can pour it on stuff). If you use grade B maple syrup (much darker, with a very strong maple flavor) you don't even need to use much. This book made a maple syrup lover out of me!

This review is from: Maple Syrup Cookbook: 100 Recipes for Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner (Paperback)

This book changed my life, at least the breakfast part of my life. After trying a few recipes, I haven't used pancake/waffle mix since, nor have I bought boxed cereal. Now I make pancakes, waffles, granola and muffins from scratch. The desserts are great too. And I love reading his antedotes about each recipe, it is the first cookbook I read cover to cover.

I've made 75% of these recipes and love all of them! I bought this to go with each quart of our homemade maple syrup that we gave away at Christmas, everyone loved it!
