Ingredients
- 2 whl vanilla beans
- 1 1/2 c. Vodka (the cheap-o stuff works just fine)
- 1/2 c. Water
- 1 c. Granulated sugar
Directions
- Anyone interested in a recipe for home-made vanilla extract It makes a fun gift for Christmas, packaged in a small jar with ribbon around neck, included recipe for same, a bag of brownie or possibly cookie mix that requires vanilla and a brownie pan. It IS alcohol-based. Perhaps someone has another recipe for one which does not require alcohol Could this be one of those "chemistry" things again I apologize for typing this in as I still haven't made friends with my to their recipe pgm. will find it a tasty and CHEAP, CHEAP, CHEAP Holiday idea. Better start it now, though! It takes about 7 weeks to "steep" it but you can fudge a little on which timing, I'm sure.
- VANILLA EXTRACT
- In a 3 c. glass container with a tight fitting lid, combine vanilla beans with the vodka. Cap and allow to "steep" at room temperature for three weeks.
- Remove vanilla beans and strain liquid through a cheesecloth, if necessary. In a medium saucepan, combine water and sugar, stirring constantly, till it comes to a boil and sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and cold. Stir into vodka which has been strained.
- Pour mix into a bottle; cap and allow to sit at room temperature one month.
- Yield:2 c. vanillaextract
