5 Gourmet Grade Mexican Vanilla Beans - Voladores Vanilla

SIZE: Each bean is at least 5 inches long. Voladores Vanilla works directly with small producers in the Totonacapan region of Mexico, the birthplace of vanilla, to bring you this sweetly aromatic spice. Each vanilla bean is left to ripen on the vine for nine months in order to achieve maximum vanillin content. The pods are sun-cured for several more months using traditional methods to develop the warm, chocolatey flavors and unmistakable aroma. Gourmet grade vanilla beans (also known as grade A beans) are excellent for use in desserts, savory dishes, speciality drinks, and any recipe that showcases real vanilla. Gourmet grade beans are the gold standard of vanilla--they are plump with vanilla “caviar” due to their higher moisture content and have a glossy sheen from the fragrant oils that naturally develop as a result of the artisanal curing process. They are extremely pliable and visually attractive with virtually no flaws. With their bold flavor and enticing aroma, gourmet Mexican vanilla beans are delightful to use in just about any recipe and are the perfect gift for bakers, cooks, and chefs.
