vanilla Sugar

[Guest guest]

Katie,

 

Is there a reason you don't cut the vanilla all the way through?

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.
