Vanilla Bean Whole
$7.50
Product description
The vanilla bean, or pod, is the long slender fruit of the vanilla orchid. Each pod contains thousands of seeds. It is one of the most expensive spices due to its complex and long curing process, particularly due to the orchid only flowering once per year. Vanilla beans are used in most of the world's cuisines. The dried pods are crinkly, black and oily. They are the purest and most potent form of vanilla and can be reused to steep in liquid until losing their flavour, or the seeds inside can be scraped out and the pod discarded. It has a floral aroma and a smooth caramel flavour. The best beans are air dried to a moisture content of 22-25%. Other products: vanilla sugar.Ingredients:
100% dried Whole Vanilla BeansHow to use:
- Open the bean lengthwise and scrape out the tiny seeds to add to any variety of sweet treats
