Product Description

As an essential ingredient for making crème brûlée, vanilla ice cream, and many other dishes, nothing beats a quality vanilla bean. Some recipes call for splitting the bean and using only the tiny black vanilla seeds contained in the bean. Place used and dried vanilla beans in a few cupfuls of sugar. After a few days, you will have delicious vanilla sugar to use in your cookie and cake recipes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heavenly!, March 10, 2007

This review is from: Premium Bourbon-Madagascar Vanilla Beans - 1/2 lb. - Approx. 54 beans (Misc.)

The vanilla beans arrived still moist, and plump. They're so much better in appearance than the kinds you can buy at Whole Foods or Wild Oats, which are very dry and shriveled by comparison, not to mention overpriced.

The fragrance is overpowering, and the shipment comes with a nice recipe for creme brulee. Don't throw away your used vanilla pods! Save them to flavor your sugar.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT VANILLA BEANS!, April 14, 2008

The beans were of great quailty. They arrived promptly, and were moist and pliable (as vanilla beans should be). Have made amazing ice cream and cheesecakes with my beans. I also can't believe how inexpensive these were. I had purchased some at my local supermarket and they weren't even as fresh as these, but had charged me $14 for 2 beans. I highly recommend this product, and would buy it again myself.

how could i go wrong with all these great reviews. i purchased 1/2 lb of their vanilla beans. my package didn't fill the air with a vanilla aroma as some mentioned. we used in a few recipes and weren't impressed. emailed amit in customer service. amit basically told me to read the reviews. so, i keep reading the reviews....but the vanilla is still not as strong as it should be. i feel like i bought an old batch.
