The Tahitian vanilla bean is easy to use and can be used in all types of cuisine. For example, create delicious exotic sauces, desserts, pastries, sweets or even cocktails.
Instructions for use :
Split the vanilla bean lengthwise with a sharp tipped knife, then scrape the tine black seeds out of the pod into a small dish to be used later in culinary preparation.
Suggestion :
Do not throw away the hollowed vanilla pod, but rather place it in your sugar bowl for a natural, delicate vanilla flavored sugar.
