Sweet Success By Steve Sanders, countyreporter@laurelleadercall.comExtra fertilizer when the cane is in the field can produce scorching during the syrup-making process. The salt content settles to the bottom and can cause scorched spots. A warm pan of water sits at the end of the oven in case the syrup gets too thick or looks like it will scorch. The extra water will evaporate and not dilute the process.
David’s son, Matthew, helps his father cook syrup. He’s been around a cane mill since he was 12, and has helped his father 10-15 years. He said he will continue the tradition. “That’s something I always enjoyed being around, so I’ll try to teach it to my girls,” he said.
