Before adding the maple syrup to the beaten eggs, it should be heated to 240 degrees. If you don’t have a candy thermometer, you can test by adding a drop of syrup to cold water; it should immediately form a soft ball. Be sure to buy only pure maple syrup, not a brand labeled “pancake syrup” or “maple-flavored syrup,” which is actually corn syrup flavored with maple extract. Pure maple syrup is graded according to color and flavor; grade B has a robust flavor that works well in baking and other recipes.
