— Every year, when the sap runs and the boilers steam, sweet smells waft from both local farms and Vermont Public Television’s studio kitchen.

It’s a mad time of year for maple producers, but sugar makers and other home cooks will take time out from boiling to join VPT on a live special called “VPT Cooks: Maple Madness”, Saturday, March 3, from 2 to 4 p.m. The program will also be webcast on vpt.org.

Host Sean Buchanan and guests as demonstrate favorite recipes featuring Vermont’s signature flavor.

Ann Rose of Ludlow, Vt., with her daughter Jessica Oberg and granddaughter Jacquelyn Oberg of Poultney, representing Green Mountain Sugar House, prepared maple pecan pie with maple whipped cream

Mike Christian of Orwell representing Village Sugarworks prepared Vermont maple ground beef stew

Ethan Ward of Poultney prepared maple rosettes.

A booklet of recipes demonstrated in the show and others from local cooks will be offered as a thank you gift for contributions made during the program.
