RAISED YEAST WAFFLES 

 Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1 package dry yeast
  • 2 cups warm milk 
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick ) butter, melted 
  • 1 teaspoon salt 
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs 
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 
  • Maple syrup, for serving

Instructions

  1. Use a large mixing bowl, the batter will rise to double its original volume. Put water in the mixing bowl and sprinkle in yeast. Let stand to dissolve 5 minutes.  
  2. Add milk, butter, salt, sugar, and flour to yeast mixture and beat until smooth and blended ( You can use a hand-rotary beater to get rid of the lumps). Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let stand overnight at room temperature. 
  3. Just before cooking to waffles, beat in eggs, add baking soda, and stir until well mixed. The batter will be very thin. Pour 1/2 to 3/4 cup batter into a very hot waffle iron. Bake the waffles until golden and crisp. This batter will keep for several days in the refrigerator. 

     BARREL AGED OIL & VINEGAR DRESSING

    • 2 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
    • 2 Tbs apple cider vinegar

    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1 tsp pepper
    • 1/2 tps oregano

    Grilled Salmon with Chipotle infused maple syrup

    Heat grill to 450F, generously rub salmon fillets with grape seed oil.  Sprinkle with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper.  Place on grill, skin side down for 6-8 minutes.  Set oven to broil setting, remove salmon from grill and brush with Chipotle infused maple syrup.  Insert fillets for 45-60 seconds, remove and brush a second time and broil an additional 45 seconds.  Remove from oven, garnish with lemon wedge. 

     

    Granulated maple sugar

    Bring 4 cups Grade A rich amber pure maple syrup to a boil in medium sauce pan.  Watch the boiling syrup carefully, if excessive foam builds on the surface use a 1/4 tbs of butter to reduce the foam.  Boil the syrup to 255-260F.  Using a stand mixer or wooden spoon beat the syrup for 4-5 minutes or until it reaches the consistency of brown sugar.  Be VERY careful when stirring hot syrup, steam will continue to rise from the cooling syrup.  Once the syrup is granulated continue stirring every 3 to 4 minutes until all the moisture is released.  Store in an air tight container.  


    Chai Infused Old Fashion cocktail

    Chai infused Old Fashion

    One of our wholesale customers from Tempe AZ shared this idea with me last week.  The twist is substituting our Chai infused pure maple syrup for the simple syrup in the traditional Old Fashion recipe.   Over the weekend I tried it using 4 Roses Bourbon, spectacular.  

      • 1 tps Old State Farms Chai infused maple syrup

      •  3 dashes Bitters

      • 2 oz of your favorite bourbon whiskey

      • 3 ice cubes, muddled orange slice, garnish with Marciano cherry


     

    Caramel Dipped Apples 

     

    INGREDIENTS

    • 1 1-pound box dark brown sugar
    • 16 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
    • 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
    • 2/3 cup dark corn syrup
    • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
    • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 1 teaspoon robust-flavored (dark) molasses
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt 
    • 12 chopsticks
    • 12 medium Granny Smith apples
    • Assorted decorations (such as chopped nuts, dried apricots and dried cranberries, toffee bits, mini M&M's and candy sprinkles)
    • Melted dark, milk and/or white chocolate 
    • Whipping cream (if necessary)

       

      RECIPE PREPARATION

      • Combine first 8 ingredients in heavy 2 1/2-quart saucepan (about 3 inches deep). Stir with wooden spatula or spoon over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves (no crystals are felt when caramel is rubbed between fingers), occasionally brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush, about 15 minutes.

      • Attach clip-on candy thermometer to side of pan. Increase heat to medium-high; cook caramel at rolling boil until thermometer registers 236°F, stirring constantly but slowly with clean wooden spatula and occasionally brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush, about 12 minutes. Pour caramel into metal bowl (do not scrape pan). Submerge thermometer bulb in caramel; cool, without stirring, to 200°F, about 20 minutes.

      • While caramel cools, line 2 baking sheets with foil; butter foil. Push 1 chopstick into stem end of each apple. Set up decorations and melted chocolates.

      • Holding chopstick, dip 1 apple into 200°F caramel, submerging all but very top of apple. Lift apple out, allowing excess caramel to drip back into bowl. Turn apple caramel side up and hold for several seconds to help set caramel around apple. Place coated apple on prepared foil. Repeat with remaining apples and caramel, spacing apples apart (caramel will pool on foil). If caramel becomes too thick to dip into, add 1 to 2 tablespoons whipping cream and briefly whisk caramel in bowl over low heat to thin.

      • Chill apples on sheets until caramel is partially set, about 15 minutes. Lift 1 apple from foil. Using hand, press pooled caramel around apple; return to foil. Repeat with remaining apples.

      • Firmly press decorations into caramel; return each apple to foil. Or dip caramel-coated apples into melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, then roll in nuts or candy. Or drizzle melted chocolate over caramel-coated apples and sprinkle with decorations. Chill until decorations are set, about 1 hour. Cover; chill up to 1 week.
