PostHeaderIcon How to make Vanilla Extract

If you like me and prefer to use natural ingredients for your dishes, then this post is spot on. Many baking recipes require you to use a Vanilla extract, but most of the commercially available kinds are not 100% natural and contain sugar water to make it sweeter. If you use it mainly for baking, then there is no need for that. Today I am going to teach you how to make your own, 100% with ease.

Ingredients:
3 vanilla beans
1 cup good vodka
Glass container with tight lid

Take a sharp knife and cut each bean in the middle, opening them. Put the beans inside glass container and cover with vodka. That's it, easy.

Give it a good shake once in a while, say each week or so. It can last from 2 months and until you are tired of it.
