The Urban Farm Chronicles: Episode 2 - Syrup in the City

Lights! Camera!............Syrup! Alright so we're not in Hollywood, but we are serving you up the second episode of the Urban Farm Chronicles right now, right here in all it's glory. We have tapped the maple trees in our yard and have been making syrup with the sap for the past couple of weeks. It is going really well. Beginning with this episode, we will start to record how much food we get out of our little Urban Farm, and since syrup is food.....it has begun! Eat your heart out Aunt Jemima! We will also be providing recipes for anything we make on the show and links from the blog to any "responsible" company that we mention in the show. So keep watching and enjoy!

Total Produce from the Farm:
3 1/2 Quarts Maple Syrup

Waffles
Preheat waffle iron. Whisk together in a large bowl:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
Thoroughly blend in another bowl:
3 eggs
2 sticks melted butter
1 1/2 cups milk
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Combine with a few swift strokes of the whisk. Cook the waffles in the waffle iron and serve with syrup from the city! (recipe modified slightly from The Joy of Cooking)
