Description: 1 Organic Madagascar Vanilla Bean (Glass Vial of 1) Organic Madagascar vanilla beans are considered the world's gold standard for quality. The country of Madagascar has a globally unmatched reputation and market demand for its high-quality Vanilla planifolia, also known as Bourbon vanilla. Bourbon vanilla is the term used for vanilla from the islands in the Indian Ocean such as Madagascar, the Comoros, and Réunion. Organic Madagascar Vanilla Beans are superior, with flavor and aromatic qualities that make these beans the most popular and sought after vanilla variety. Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla Beans are very distinct, with a flavor and aroma profile unlike any other vanilla bean. All Natural, Gluten-Free, Kosher Parve, Non-GMO, Organic Described as an "all-purpose" vanilla, it is generally preferred over other varieties due to its versatility and superior vanillin content to other varieties of vanilla. The flavor profile for this variety is described as sweet with soft creamy endnotes. Madagascar consistently produces 65-85 percent of the total world volume of vanilla beans. Harvesting and processing vanilla beans are time-consuming because, in Madagascar, every vanilla flower is pollinated by hand. After being harvested, the green pods are heated in warm water, fermented, frequently massaged during the drying process and finally sorted. This makes Bourbon vanilla a unique, top-quality product with an unrivaled and exceptional taste. The organic sector in Madagascar is small, and exports are limited. Organic agricultural production has predominately been done by small-scale farmers. Today, this demand has reached a new level of acceleration as consumers prefer organically produced vanilla beans because of their concerns for the environment and the livelihood of producers in developing countries. What once was considered to be niche is fast becoming a mainstream market and consumers show a willingness to pay the price premiums established in the marketplace for organic vanilla. Recommended Applications Use in a variety of cooking and baking applications, including vanilla sugar, sweet sauces, ice cream, cakes and cookies, and homemade vanilla extract Use vanilla seeds to add a gourmet visual cue to ice cream, custards and crème brûlées Add to coffee grinds for vanilla-flavored coffee, or add pods to sugar to make vanilla sugar Basic Preparation To use a vanilla bean, cut each end off from the vanilla bean and slice through the vanilla bean lengthwise, remove the paste from inside the vanilla bean and use as needed.
