    The last time I made vanilla I used food grade glycerine. What's your thoughts on that. It doesn't have that wonderful smell. We are an alcohol free family so I'm having a hard time deciding what to do. Love from Missouri

    • @JulieKeeperofMyHome
      @JulieKeeperofMyHome 5 дней назад

      I have never tried using glycerine, but I understand that not using alcohol is important to many. We only use the vanilla in baked goods. The alcohol gets cooked off during the baking process. However, if you are using it to make ice cream or yogurt, the alcohol will still be present.

    had my vanilla extract made with vodka over a year but still a vodka smell why

    • @JulieKeeperofMyHome
      @JulieKeeperofMyHome 9 дней назад

      Perhaps there are not enough vanilla beans? Grade A beans are plumper and contain more moisture content than grade B. I'm not sure what grade you used. Maybe try adding a couple more beans? Or you can add up to a tablespoon of cane sugar per pint of extract, or two tablespoons per quart, to help soften the alcohol smell. I hope this helps. ❤️

  • @craftycatstitcher6658
    @craftycatstitcher6658 10 дней назад

    Here's a question. I bought some vanilla beans online and a couple of them had a whitish substance on part of them. Is this normal?

    • @JulieKeeperofMyHome
      @JulieKeeperofMyHome 10 дней назад

      The whitish substance on vanilla beans could be vanillin crystals or mold. Vanillin crystals are small, white, and transparent crystals that can form on vanilla beans when they have a lower moisture content. The crystals can look like tiny white needles, rain droplets, or glass-like diamonds. They are a sign that the vanilla beans were well-cultivated and cured, and that the vanillin, a flavor compound that contributes to the bean's aroma and taste, has migrated to the outside of the pod as it dries out. Vanillin crystals are safe to eat and can make vanilla have a more concentrated flavor. Mold can also appear on vanilla beans as a white, powdery substance that doesn't glitter. Mold can be difficult to distinguish from other imperfections on the bean, but it usually has a musty, wet smell and can be yellow, green, white, or black in color. I hope this helps. 🙏

      @@JulieKeeperofMyHome Thank you! I did remove the parts that were questionable to me. And the beans didn't smell bad, in fact they smelled good! So I went ahead and started my vanilla. This was 13 months ago. When I heard about possible mold on vanilla beans, I got a little paranoid, but now I think I was just seeing crystals. I decanted my vanilla today and it tastes and smells delicious!

    I have made my own before, the biggest problem I have is remembering a year ahead! I forget and then run out! I am going to order some beans right now and get it done this week. I bought a 16 oz bottle of it at Costco for 11.99, (only ingredients are vanilla beans and alcohol) which is way cheaper than the grocery. Great tips! I might do a batch of half bourbon and half vodka. Thanks!! Have a great week! Do you think I can just put in about 12 beans in the alcohol bottle? That way it’s all in one? I always decanted it.

    I can’t remember the last time I bought vanilla, I’ve been making it so long. I’ve tried other liquor but tend to make more with vodka, maybe because it’s cheaper? Lol. I think it lasts longer also than store bought because I don’t add as much. Have a blessed day ❤️

    Wonderful video! I look at my garden as supplementing because we would starve to death if we had to live on it...I live in mid Arizona and growing things here is not a picnic. Between the altitude, lack of rain and huge swings in temperatures (not uncommon to be 95 in day and 30's at night) there are certain things that work and those that don't. I stopped trying to fight it! That and I am plant hospice and tend to just transition them to Jesus! I did go out this morning and deadheaded my roses and washed them to dry out to make rosehip oil and dried petals for tea and beauty products. I did spy some peppers and some tomato blooms so fingers crossed!! I will always try my best. Thanks for another wonderful catch up with you!
