Maple syrup is tasty but a little expensive.When I used this instead of maple syrup in a recipe, it was perfect! It increased my repertoire of dishes.This is a modification of a recipe from Patricio's macrobiotic recipe book. Thank you.It will keep for about 3 weeks in the fridge.Taste it after it has cooled, or you'll burn yourself! Recipe by Maecchino shokutaku

I had about three drops of store brought syrup left but had already made breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and beef bacon so i had to improv. i remembered this recipe from when i worked in a restaurant and someone forgot to add syrup to the delivery list.

It's a greek dessert and a well-known Egyptian street-dessert as well.

My whole family loves simmered chestnuts in syrup, and I wanted to eat a bunch of them to my heart's content - so I made my own. I referred to an old fashioned, slow-cooking method, and cut a few corners while still ensuring that they came out nicely. If you take your time to make these, they say you should end up with lovely glossy-looking chestnuts!One of the keys to a nice finish is to thoroughly get rid of bitterness. I tried shortening the soaking step once, and the chestnuts came out looking rather dark.When cooling the boiled chestnuts, if you don't soak them in water until they have completely cooled, their surfaces will become dry and flaky. Chestnuts can fall apart easily, so handle them gently. Recipe by black wolf

When regular chocolate syrup just won't due! Perfect for adding to coffee and cocktails or as a topping for ice cream, baked goods, and fresh fruit.

A semolina cake that is cut into lozenges. Sugar syrup is poured over it while the cake is still in the baking tray. Soak it well and savor those super sweet lozenges!

In the summertime, I often want to eat kanten (agar-agar) jellies.I received lump brown sugar as a gift, so I referred to a cookbook from Okinawa to make this syrup.When reducing the syrup, take care not to let it boil over. If you let the syrup burn, it will become bitter, so keep mixing as you simmer.For people who wrote in concerned about the syrup crystallizing while chilling, the syrup was OK for 10 days. For an easy to make amount. Recipe by tearstar

I wanted to make some sweet potato pudding, so I also made an easy caramel sauce to go with it.Nothing, really! Recipe by Jinpiyo

It's here! Kumquat season! So, I decided to make my regular kumquats in sugar syrup. I tried using raw cane sugar as the sugar, which made the flavor rich and mild - a big success.If the bitterness bothers you, bring the kumquats to a boil first and drain before simmering them in the sugar syrup.I use this in recipes a lot, so I made a big amount during kumquat season, and froze it. If you want to eat it plain, it's best enjoyed fresh instead of freezing it. For an easy to make amount. Recipe by yaburie

When I made matcha pudding with whole eggs, the color didn't turn out too good. On the other hand, when I used egg whites only, the resulting matcha pudding was beautifully green.The pudding becomes porous if the temperature of the pudding mixture and the hot bath is vastly different. That's why it's important to warm the mixture to a certain extent before soaking it in the hot bath. When it has become too cold, cool down the hot bath slightly and then start simmering. Please serve with some brown sugar syrup - they go really well together. Recipe by twinflower

I got tired of buying Torani simple syrup at $6.00+ per bottle every week. This recipe has the same viscosity and sweetness, but has a slight coloring and will not keep as long due to not having any added preservatives.
