sorghum: a golden foaming syrup
This sorghum was produced in a small community in the rolling hills of southern Kentucky, by 12 or more families . Working hard from spring till fall, plowing, planting, cultivating, hoeing. Then finally in September comes the harvesting. Taking the leaves off and cutting the cane all hand labor. The stalks are hauled in to the horse drawn mill, where they go around and around squeezing the juice out of the stalks. The juice is boiled down on a wood fired evaporator, as the impurities are dipped off in a green scum. The foam boils up in a pure white, and finally comes down to a golden foaming syrup. This syrup can be used in many different ways, but what is better than hot bisquits, butter and sorghum on a cool fall morning?
