Very educational and love your teachings from Papua New Guinea. Thank you for promoting our vanilla beans to the rest of the world. We have huge potential to supply the world market.
Stumbled on this vid and loved it! I've subscribed because I also love the concept of a commercial kitchen at home and I am working toward that as well! I have several quarts of vanilla extract (vodka and rum) that I started in 2020. It's fantastic! I did not realize you could use the whole bean this way! I hope you have some videos showing how you use the powdered form. thanks for posting!

Can you dry the beans using sunlight? If so, how long? I'm in the tropics.
Thank you for the kind words! 😊
You MIGHT be able to dry the beans in the sun. However, if you’re in the tropics, it may be too humid outside to dry the beans in the sun.
If you do try it, I would use a mosquito netting over them to keep the insects and other pests off.
Beautiful ❤. To wash the vanilla, did you use pure alcohol or mixed with water?
Vodka. You can also use plain water. Either doesn’t matter, as long as you’re rinsing the to remove any physical contaminants.
Would the beans dry any better if they are split?
When done grinding in my coffee grinder I turn it upside down and tap, shake and thump so all the goodies go into the lid before opening! Just a thought.
I was just thinking about making powder, and here I find your tutorial! Perfect timing!! Thanks!
Yes. Splitting the beans would help them dry faster.
What temp in dehydrator?
The one we use doesn't have a temperature setting. If you have one that does, 150-160F should be just fine.

Could you use it to make vanilla sugar?
YES. In fact, vanilla powder is what vanilla sugar is SUPPOSED to be made with. Not by sticking used beans (or fresh, either) in your sugar and hoping the little bit of flavor comes out in your sugar.
@@aromachocolates John, what is your recommended ratio of vanilla powder to sugar in order to make it potent enough, but not wasting too much powder that could be used for something else?
How do you store it? How would you store Vanilla Sugar then?
Store it in an air tight container in a cool dry place like your cupboard.
Store vanilla sugar the same as you would regular sugar.
Can you rinse them in water instead of alcohol ?
Thank you
Yes you can.
But rinsing them in alcohol isn’t going to hurt anything. Especially if you’re going to be putting them in vodka to make vanilla extract.
How long is the shelf life if stored properly?
At least a year. But like all spices, it will lose its potency over time.
I already make vanilla extract and vanilla bean paste. Why would I need vanilla bean powder? What would be the differences/benefits?
Some recipes call for vanilla powder because they need dry ingredients. If you put an extract or even a paste into a dry recipe, you could ruin it. There's A LOT of great uses for vanilla powder too, not just for cooking. It can be used in soaps, teas, and scrubs.
@@aromachocolates Thank you for the explanation. It makes sense now. Another jar will be added to my stash of vanilla bean: extract, paste, sugar, and salt 🥰
What is the benefit of using vanilla powder over extract or paste?
Vanilla powder adds no water to the recipe it’s used in. So, if you’re adding vanilla to a recipe that needs to be drier, vanilla powder is your best friend.
@@aromachocolates thank you
how about just dehydrating the seeds inside? would that make the flavor richer? you would only get like 15% of what you did tho. i think it would be a strong as hell 15% however!
The seeds inside the pod have no flavor and contain no vanillin. It's the placental tissue (the "goo") surrounding the seeds that has the vanillin. Some of it makes its way into the flesh of the pod. So, dehydrating the seeds would do nothing. Besides, it would be an incredibly time consuming process to just get the seeds out.
