I've never washed them!<br />Do you store your vanilla extract in the fridge. Put it in a cool dark place, like kitchen cabinet. I put mine in my lower kitchen cabinet and let it stand for at least 2 months before I use it.<br />Hope this clarifies.Passionate About Bakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02454478587314315169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4342310444700273133.post-86824175046435765212010-07-10T15:45:30.469+08:002010-07-10T15:45:30.469+08:00Hi Jane,

Do I have to wash the vanilla pod before cutting and using it?

Did you find it out from some site? Hmm...maybe I'll go and get another smaller bottle and try using Rum. Thanks very much sharing, else I would never have known. ;))Passionate About Bakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02454478587314315169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4342310444700273133.post-22855397279039097732010-07-09T21:13:44.985+08:002010-07-09T21:13:44.985+08:00Hi busygran,

Anything from a baking friend must be of good quality! ;)<br /><br />Hi <b>Jess</b>,<br />Oh yes, you must quickly get down to do it. It takes at least 2 months for the extract to "mature". The longer you delay, the later you have your homemade extract. After that, it's never looking back!<br /><br />Hi <b>Fiona</b>,<br />What is vanilla essence? Heehee... Don't use lah, throw away lah. You give me a small empty glass container, I spare you some. :p Btw, it's not that your bake is not good yet, it's because you've not used the REAL vanilla extract! ;pPassionate About Bakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02454478587314315169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4342310444700273133.post-83759098237163802102010-07-09T09:47:30.950+08:002010-07-09T09:47:30.950+08:00Hey Jane, I just made a batch of homemade vanilla ...Hey Jane, I just made a batch of homemade vanilla myself a couple weeks back. ;) But instead of vodka, I used Rum! Why rum? Because I tried using both rum and vodka making the extract and it turns out the rum one is so much more intense! do consider using rum next time...you won't regret it. ;) Hope I get a chance to blog about it and you will see what I'm talking about., ;) Yeah...Reese got a bottle of my 1st batch. ;)Honey Bee Sweetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07611185580466977913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4342310444700273133.post-8365572716102688992010-07-09T09:42:02.233+08:002010-07-09T09:42:02.233+08:00WOW, I am so envious & jealous!
