These rainforest-grown organic vanilla beans are carefully grown, harvested and cured to perfection to ensure they are bursting with flavour. When you slice them open and let them sit for just 10 minutes, the flavors begin to develop, and you'll be transported to a world of pure vanilla bliss. Starting with a ripe dried fig aroma, our vanilla beans then take you on a journey through a variety of scent profiles, each one more tantalizing than the last. Finally, you'll arrive at a rich and velvety vanilla with undertones of raisin and chocolate.
Within the pods there are numerous amounts of tiny sticky seeds which can be scraped out and put into custards, cakes, tarts, or used in poaching fruit.
The whole pod, cut down the middle, can be added to liquid preparations such as custards and syrups while cooking to impart more flavour, and once used it can be dried out and placed in your sugar pot to infuse vanilla flavour into your sugar.
Unusually, the flavour of vanilla can also be used in seafood and chicken dishes.
Also combines well with cardamom, chilli, cinnamon and cloves.
