I was once told that saying "I am nauseous" means you make other people sick and you *should* say "I'm nauseated" to convey what you actually mean. However, nobody gives a shit about that 'rule' but I can't help thinking of it every time i say it or i hear/read it. Just sharing my intrusive thought, no need to pay much attention.....
We would tap our maples and make our own. We would go out every few days and grab 5 gallon buckets full of the sap and when we had enough, filter it and boil it down to syrup and put it in quart mason jars. We would also make birch syrup.
Honey, if there's no maple there's no pancakes.
But honey is okay too.
Tho I'd prefer Belgian waffles with bacon cooked inside the batter. It's amazing.
We have maple syrup, I will get the B grade if I can find it, but it's almost always A grade in the stores here. But I also use agave nectar or local honey.
Maple syrup. I preferred pancake syrup until I was ~30, when I tried sugar-free pancake syrup for the first and only time. It was so nasty that I can't stomach any kind of pancake syrup anymore.
Are you asking about real maple syrup? I saw an article that most people have never had real maple syrup even though they think they have. After seeing the article I realized I’ve never had it, I’ve only had the fake stuff, which is what I’m assuming you’re referring to as pancake syrup.
Maple syrup.
I grew up eating Aunt Jemima. Ms Buttersworth, and whatever other syrup my parents bought but, since I started having real maple syrup, I simply won't compromise with that cheap crap. I'd rather just eat something else if that's the only option.
Yes, maple syrup is made from maple sap. Pancake syrup is usually dyed and flavored corn syrup. It sometimes has actual maple in it, but it doesn't have to.
I’m going to lose my cooking credentials for this, but I prefer pancake syrup on waffles and pancakes, especially the butter flavored syrups. Maple syrup is a great sweetener in certain recipes, but the texture is too thin to be a topping.
Both but i (unpopularly) prefer pancake syrup. I dont love the fresh plant flavor of maple syrup. I dont hate it so i will use it if its whats available, but its not what id choose.
Cheap syrup (i.e. Mrs. Butterworth) only has maple flavoring, not actual maple syrup. Legally, it has to be labelled as "breakfast syrup" or "pancake syrup" rather than "maple syrup".
I haven't willingly eaten a pancake since I was a child 45+ years ago.
If I'm going to do something with syrup though (cocktail, glaze for meat, dessert, etc.) it's going to be real maple syrup. I don't get the attraction of artificially-flavored corn syrup at all. But then again, I also don't like pancakes.
I'm not sure what pancake syrup is, but yes, we use all the syrups. I use maple, hickory, and corn syrup, as well as all the different flavors such as strawberry, boysenberry, cherry, and blueberry.
I prefer and buy maple syrup
But pancake syrup is significantly cheaper and if your are getting breakfast at a local diner you are likely getting pancake syrup
I've never heard of syrup being called pancake syrup... I prefer real maple syrup over artificial, but when I have time I really like to make blueberry syrup to use on pancakes.
Neither, because I don't care for them, but if those are my only choices than maple is far better than whatever the imitation stuff is.
I prefer tart fruit syrups or tart jellies/jams, honestly. Or just plain with butter.
Both. Real maple syrup is pretty expensive so if you’re at a diner or for example getting McDonald’s syrup with your hot cakes, you’re getting high fructose corn syrup with flavoring. A lot of people prefer this and actually don’t like real maple when they have it. They just want artificial sugar. I like real maple syrup myself but almost never do sweet breakfasts so it’s a negligible decision for me.
What is pancake syrup?
Americans often have access to berry syrups and butter pecan, but the default is maple syrup.
Again… what does pancake syrup consist of?
What is pancake syrup?
Most people I would say put either make syrup or a maple-flavored syrup (Mrs Butterworths, Log Cabin). Is the latter what you mean?
Beyond that, fruit syrups occasionally.
I wasn't aware there was a difference - is this a "real" vs "fake" maple syrup thing? If so, probably fake, because I'm poor and cheap and don't eat pancakes often enough to splurge.
Pancake syrup. Maple syrup is really expensive where I live and honestly it's a bit strong when I do get it. I buy this pancake syrup I really like, a butter pecan flavor, that's my favorite. It's fine if it's made with corn syrup. The taste is all that matters and I like the taste. I rarely eat anything that takes this syrup anyway.
If I have access to some quality maple syrup I'll use that first; especially bourbon barrel aged is excellent.
2nd choice is Mrs Butterworths. Always liked a lot of butter and the extra buttery flavor hits right for me.
For those confused: corn syrup dyed brown is often sold as "maple" syrup; the label will usually say something like "pancake syrup" or "maple flavored syrup".
