Nielsen-Massey Indonesian Vanilla Extract 32 fl. oz.

Details

This Nielsen-Massey Indonesian vanilla extract will transport your patrons to the sun-kissed archipelago of Indonesia, where warm ocean breezes tantalize the senses with the unmistakable fragrance of vanilla. Comprising more than 17,000 islands stretched across 5,000 miles of the Pacific, Indonesia's vast vanilla-growing region has earned the country the distinction of being the world's second largest producer of vanilla. Here, expert farmers carefully hand-pollinate delicate white and yellow vanilla orchid flowers to produce long seed pods that resemble green beans. These pods ripen on the vine for around 9 months before being hand-harvested and expertly cured under the tropical sunshine. From pollinating to harvesting to curing, it takes well over a year to transform the fragrant flowers of vanilla orchids into distinctive, long, dark brown vanilla beans. This time- and skill-intensive process - in addition to Nielsen-Massey's proprietary cold-extraction process - results in vanilla with an unparalleled flavor that cannot be matched by synthetic alternatives. This Indonesian vanilla extract has over 300 flavor compounds that create a taste that's truly exceptional! Its distinctive, upfront flavor profile has pronounced woody and smoky tones, with fruity, fig-like notes.

With a sweet and creamy profile reminiscent of popular Madagascar Bourbon vanilla, this Indonesian vanilla extract is a versatile option that can be used in practically any application that calls for vanilla. Its flavor is familiar enough to preserve the character of your signature recipes, but strong and sultry enough to set your menu items apart from the competition. Indonesian vanilla is noted for its excellent flavor stability - unlike more delicate vanillas, this variety holds its flavor well in high-heat and slow-baked applications. Try adding a few teaspoons of this vanilla extract to your cakes, cookies, and brownies to add distinctive flavor to your baked goods. Its rich flavor profile complements the sweetness of chocolate- and dairy-based recipes; use it to flavor house-made chocolate confections or mix it into a batch of homemade vanilla ice cream!

Though vanilla is traditionally thought of as a flavoring for baked goods and sweet treats, the unique qualities of this Indonesian vanilla extract make it a delicious addition to savory recipes as well. Its bold and smoky flavor makes it a perfect addition to house-made barbecue sauces perfect for flavoring ribs, pulled pork, and chicken. Add a few drops of Indonesian vanilla extract to your next batch of chili, where it will add smooth, distinctive flavor while mellowing out the acidity of the tomato-based broth. It can even be used as an ingredient in marinades, glazes, and braising liquids for meats to bring deep, smoky flavor to your signature entrees!
