1-2 vanilla beans
Granulated sugar
1 airtight jar (I use a 6 cup / 3 pint / 1500 ml mason jar)

Note: 1 1/2 teaspoons = 1 pack of vanilla sugar

Fill the jar halfway with sugar.

Cut the beans into 1 to 1 1/2 inch pieces and stick them into the sugar.

Add sugar to cover the beans.

Close the container and place it into a cool dark closet. The vanilla sugar will ready for usage after 3 weeks.

Add sugar to the jar if needed. The beans will release the aroma for about two years. They are still good after that, but they will need heat to release more aroma, that means they can be used for making a custard.

Spread the word
