vanilla Sugar

[Guest guest]

I have an even simpler way to make vanilla sugar. I believe I got the idea from

one of Sarah Kramer's books. Take a vanilla bean and cut it down one side but

not all the way through. Essentially you're splitting the bean open. Then

slice it into 2-3 inch sections. Put these in a glass jar along with your sugar

of choice. Shake it up and let it sit for a few days, giving it a shake every

now and then. You're done, you've got vanilla sugar.

 

When you use some, just add back in some plain sugar and let it sit for two

days again. I've used the same vanilla bean for about 2 years and it still

works great. You can use this in recipes that call for both vanilla and sugar.

It allows you to skip the vanilla extract which costs a ridiculous amount.
