How to Make Vanilla Sugar
Vanilla sugar is used in many different recipes, so it's always good to have a little prepared to save time later.
[edit] Ingredients
- 1–2 vanilla beans (also known as pods)
- Granulated sugar (enough to half fill jar)
[edit] Steps
- Pour the sugar into your container, and slice the beans carefully into small pieces.
- Bury the bean pieces in the sugar, and put the lid on extra tight.
- Store in a cool, dark closet for a minimum of 3-4 weeks.
- Use as needed.
[edit] Tips
- As you use the sugar, you can replace it with more. The beans will continue to release their aromas for up to two years.
