McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract 32oz 946ml - FAQ
- Q: What is pure vanilla extract?
- A: Pure vanilla extract is made by soaking cured vanilla beans in alcohol and water. The alcohol draws out the hundreds of natural flavor compounds locked inside the beans, producing the rich, warm flavor that has made vanilla the most popular baking extract in the world.
- Q: Why is pure vanilla called the "king of extracts"?
- A: Vanilla is the most widely used flavoring in the world. It appears in cakes, cookies, custards, candies, drinks, and even savory sauces. Its warm, familiar flavor makes it a staple in nearly every kitchen, often second only to salt and pepper.
- Q: Why does pure vanilla extract contain alcohol?
- A: Alcohol is the natural carrier for vanilla flavor. It extracts the oils from the bean, dilutes the intensity so you can measure by teaspoon instead of drop, and spreads the flavor evenly in recipes. Most of the alcohol cooks off during baking, leaving only pure vanilla taste
- Q: Why is pure vanilla so expensive?
- A: Vanilla beans grow on orchids that must be hand-pollinated. The pods take months to ripen and cure. Madagascar supplies most of the world's crop, so storms, drought, or political issues there can drive prices up sharply.
- Q: Can I substitute imitation vanilla for pure vanilla?
- A: Yes, but the flavor is just a little different. Imitation vanilla provides a simple vanilla taste at a lower cost, while pure vanilla delivers complex, layered flavor. Many bakers choose pure vanilla for desserts where vanilla is the star. That said, most cost-conscious commercial candy and chocolate bars use vanillin instead of pure vanilla. Yet, for home baking the cost per serving of pure vanilla extract is only pennies.
- Q: Why do most candy bars use imitation vanilla instead of pure vanilla extract?
- A: Because at an industrial scale, pennies matter. While pure vanilla delivers layered flavor, mass-market chocolate and candy usually rely on vanillin, the main flavor compound of vanilla. Using imitation saves manufacturers millions, even though the flavor is simpler. For home baking, the difference in cost is only pennies per serving, which is why many bakers prefer pure vanilla.
- Q: Does pure vanilla extract go bad?
- A: Pure vanilla extract is very stable and does not spoil like fresh food, since the alcohol preserves it. Over time, especially after several years, the flavor may mellow a little, but it remains safe to use. For best results, keep it tightly closed and stored in a cool, dark place.
