So, what is pure vanilla?
Pure vanilla is a natural and aromatic ingredient that comes from the seed pod of the vanilla orchid. The process of extracting pure vanilla involves hand-pollinating the orchid, picking the green pods at the right time, curing them in the sun, and then aging them for several months to develop their rich and complex flavor. The resulting extract is a versatile ingredient that adds a sweet and floral flavor to a variety of dishes, from baked goods to savory sauces. Pure vanilla is prized for its high quality and is often used in gourmet cooking and baking.
