Harvested and prepared in Tanzania according to traditional methods, these premium Tanzania Vanilla Beans offer a distinctive aromatic profile characterised by woody, hay, and powdery notes. Produced from the Vanilla planifolia variety and selected in Gourmet Grade A quality, they are appreciated for their rich fragrance, supple texture, and unique flavour profile. Their vegetal and powdery character makes them particularly suitable for pastry, chocolate, ice cream, and dessert applications where a more complex and distinctive vanilla note is desired.
Use
Suitable for infusing creams, milk, custards, ice cream bases, ganaches, sauces, and beverages. For best results, split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds with a knife. Add both the seeds and the pod to your liquid preparation, using approximately 1 to 3 beans per litre. Infuse at 70°C for around 20 minutes, then allow the mixture to cool. For a more intense and complex flavour profile, leave the vanilla to infuse for up to 24 hours under refrigeration before use.
