While I was looking up information about making my own curry/garam masala I did some research on fenugreek also since it seems to be an important ingredient in curry powder. Multiple sites said it tasted similar to maple and was in fact used as maple flavoring in maple flavored syrups and candies. So I was wondering, if fenugreek can be used as maple flavoring, could maple be used as fenugreek flavoring?
I know, I know, just buy the fenugreek. Accept it's not sold around here so I'd have to get it online and while the price of it isn't too bad, the shipping costs are high enough that I wouldn't want to buy it unless I was buying other stuff also to make the shipping cost worth while. So I'm looking for something to use in a pinch. Maple is pretty readily available around here so if it would work that would be cool.
