Dr. Oetker Madagascan Vanilla Extract 35ml | Vanilla Extract

Dr. Oetker Madagascan vanilla extract, 35ml. Extract rather than essence, which is the distinction worth caring about: extract is made from actual vanilla beans, essence is usually synthetic vanillin.

In anything where the vanilla is a background note the difference is small. In a custard, an ice cream, a plain sponge or a buttercream, where vanilla is doing most of the flavouring, it is immediately obvious.

Madagascan vanilla is the classic profile: rich, sweet and rounded rather than sharp.

Product Details

• 35ml bottle
• Real extract, not synthetic essence
• Madagascan vanilla
• Worth it where vanilla is the main flavour

A small bottle goes a long way, since most recipes call for a teaspoon at most and more does not improve things.

Add it off the heat where possible, since the aromatic compounds are volatile and boil away.

Vanilla paste and vanilla pods are worth it for a custard or an ice cream, but extract covers everything else.

Keep it sealed and out of direct sunlight. Buy Dr. Oetker Madagascan Vanilla Extract online from Linenvale.
