Vanilla extract is great for infusing full-bodied vanilla flavor throughout a recipe without the need to scrape the vanilla bean. If you are a lover or fan of Tahitian vanilla, then this is the perfect choice of pure vanilla extract for you. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYou are not buying plain vanilla extract \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat do we mean by this, well...most vanilla extract is made using Madagascar and other bourbon or planifolia varieties of vanilla beans.  This vanilla extract is made using vanilla tahitensis that are grown in the fertile soils of French Polynesia.  Vanilla from Tahiti, the authentic stuff, not Tahitian vanilla from Papua New Guinea (no offense to our friends in PNG) is the most expensive vanilla in the world.  It is quite rare and only available in extremely limited quantities year to year and season to season. If you have not tried vanilla from Tahiti, you truly do not know what your are missing.  Its subtle aroma is floral, sweet, seductive and most certainly a treasure.  Tahitian vanilla is commonly used in high-end pastry shops, perfumes and fragrances, and cosmetic applications.  Perhaps most famously Chanel uses French Polynesian vanilla in their coveted fragrances.

Vanilla orchids are meticulously cared for each season to protect against disease, theft, fungal infection, and more.  Once the vanilla beans ripen, after a period of around eight months, they are picked.  The green vanilla beans are then submerged in hot water to begin the curing process. The beans are then covered in wool or cotton blankets and stored in sweating boxes before beginning the sun drying process. This hot water bath and sun-drying of the vanilla beans kick-start the enzymatic reaction that helps develop the complex flavor and aroma that bourbon vanilla from Madagascar is known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do we make Vanilla Extract?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile we can not give you the full details (psst, it is a company secret), we can offer you some insight into how we make vanilla extract.  First, vanilla beans are hand-selected each season around October. Slofoodgroup only works with a European red vanilla bean standard. This type of vanilla bean is 25-27 percent in moisture, and is distinguished by the red variegated lines running up and down the length of the vanilla pod. This grade of vanilla is less visually appealing to many users, but it is the perfect vanilla for making vanilla extract.  After the vanilla beans are selected, they are then milled and chopped into .25 inch or smaller pieces.  The vanilla beans are then mixed into a bath of neutral ethanol and water to make a 35 percent by volume solution of alcohol and circulated for a period of no less than 90 days. After 90 days, the vanilla extract is run through a filtration to remove the organic sediments prior to being bottled.  Looking to make vanilla extract on your own?  Head on over to our \u003ca title=\"Madagascar vanilla beans for making vanilla extract\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slofoodgroup.com\/products\/madagascar-vanilla-beans-extract-grade-b\"\u003eMadagascar grade B vanilla beans\u003c\/a\u003e and find just the right size for your do-it-yourself vanilla extract needs. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade with love and the following ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: water, alcohol 35%, vanilla beans extractives (100 percent all natural vanilla beans from Madagascar)   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal Vanilla Extract for cooking and baking\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Slofoodgroup","offers":[{"title":"2 fl. oz.","offer_id":32872801894444,"sku":"SFGVEMSF01","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 fl. oz.","offer_id":32872801927212,"sku":"SFGVEMSF02","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 fl. oz.","offer_id":32872801959980,"sku":"SFGVEMSF03","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 fl.oz.","offer_id":32872801992748,"sku":"SFGVEMSF04","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":32872802025516,"sku":"SFGVEMSF05","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 Gallon","offer_id":36402511642789,"sku":"SFGVEMSF06","price":590.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2465\/9907\/products\/vanilla-extract-sugar-free-pure-madagascar-bourbon-vanilla-vanilla-products-slofoodgroup-8-fl-oz-280591.jpg?v=1762439578"},{"product_id":"freeze-dried-tahitian-vanilla-bean-powder","title":"Vanilla Bean Powder from Tahiti","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBuy Whole Ground Vanilla Beans from Tahiti \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal Tahitian vanilla bean flavor that is easy to use and does not sacrifice on quality. Our vanilla from Tahiti has been freeze dried and ground to preserve as much pure vanilla flavor as possible.
