Organic Vanilla Bean Extract

Happy Birthday my little, delicious organic vanilla extract. She is 1 month old today, I have purchased another LB of organic vanilla beans and will be starting another batch of organic vanilla extract once I arrive home from Mexico. This vanilla extract will take about 4-6 months to be ready so it still has a long way to go, but trust me, good things come to those who wait!

You will be able to purchase this when it is ready, I will be posting her (yes, HER) 2 month birthday next month :) Check this article I wrote on my most favorite ingredient in the world, to learn more about vanilla and all of it's deliciousness.  Vanilla, I Love You!

Fresh Mint and Vanilla Grape salad

I just made this delicious salad for a catering. It's simple and refreshing, just add a little vanilla and a little freshly chopped mint to red seedless grapes. Taste it, ask yourself if it needs more vanilla or mint and then serve it on little Chinese spoons. Voila!
