Vanilla bean facts & tips
Vanilla beans are the fruit of the vanilla orchid and are the second-most expensive spice after saffron.
Opt for whole vanilla beans that are plump and oily for the best flavor.
Keep vanilla beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. They can be stored for up to a year. Do not refrigerate, as moisture can cause mold.
