Nielsen-Massey Ugandan Vanilla Extract 32 fl. oz.

Details

Infuse your culinary creations with the flavor of warm, equatorial sunshine and lush, tropical climate when you cook and bake with this Nielsen-Massey Ugandan vanilla extract. Known as the "pearl of Africa," Uganda boasts fertile soil and ideal climate conditions that allow for 2 vanilla harvests per growing season and produce some of the world's highest quality vanilla beans. Expert Ugandan farmers carefully hand-pollinate delicate white and yellow vanilla orchid flowers to produce plump seed pods that resemble green beans. These pods ripen on the vine under the tropical sun for around 9 months before being hand-harvested and carefully cured. From pollinating to harvesting to curing, it takes well over a year to transform the fragrant flowers of vanilla orchids in to 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 Ugandan vanilla extract has more than 300 flavor compounds that create a taste that's truly exceptional! Its full-bodied, sweet, creamy flavor features notes of bold chocolate, making it a remarkable addition to your recipes.

The sweet, sultry, exotic character of this Ugandan vanilla extract makes it a truly versatile ingredient in your gourmet kitchen! Its rich, bold profile pairs beautifully with chocolate, caramel, and citrus flavors, enhancing their taste without being overpowering. This handy vanilla works equally well in both hot and cold applications, so try using it to flavor puddings or homemade ice cream! It makes a great addition to house-made baked goods like cookies, cakes, and brownies. You can even add a few dashes to a favorite beverage like hot chocolate, chai lattes, iced tea, and cocktails to add irresistible flavor and fragrance to your signature drinks.

Though vanilla is traditionally thought of as a flavoring for baked goods and sweet treats, the unique qualities of this Ugandan vanilla extract make it a delicious addition to savory recipes as well! When added to marinades and sauces for seafood or pork recipes, this vanilla accentuates the qualities of your other ingredients while adding luxuriant depth of flavor. Try drizzling a touch of vanilla into your signature salsas and salad dressings for an unforgettable taste; it works particularly well in tomato-based sauces, where its mellow character tempers the acidity of the tomatoes.
