Maple Gastrique

This is probably the most ‘chefy’ of all our maple creations – a perfect way to leave your dinner guests wondering how you transformed those simple sautéed greens. PURE’s Maple Gastrique makes it super easy because we did all the hard work balancing the sweetness of maple syrup, with the tartness of pure apple cider vinegar. The result is that you get all the kudos. In addition to sautéed vegetables, we love it as a way to transform stir frys (a light drizzle does wonders!), use it in sauces to add depth and complexity to flavours, and as the base for Asian dipping sauces for dumplings and gyoza.

How To use

  • Stir frys and steamed or roasted vegetables (a light drizzle does wonders!)
  • All kinds of sauces – pan sauces, tomato-based sauces or even curry cream sauces
  • Salad and coleslaw dressings and vinaigrettes
  • Drizzling over pork or chicken before serving
  • Steaming mussels, along with cream and fresh thyme
  • An Asian dipping sauce for dumplings and gyoza – in combination with a little soya sauce and rice wine vinegar
