Vanilla powder is handy to keep on hand in your kitchen for flavoring many different types of desserts and beverages. Our vanilla powder is made by taking pure vanilla oleoresin and drying it onto a carrier (in this case, maltodextrin). No sugar or other ingredients are added to the product.
Many beverages are complimented by the addition of vanilla powder. Hot chocolate is one example. It also goes well as an ingredient in holiday eggnog, along with allspice and cinnamon. Your yogurt breakfast smoothie, with fresh fruit like banana and berries, will benefit from a pinch of vanilla as well.
WMany desserts would not have the same appeal without vanilla powder. Chocolate and vanilla are natural companions in many dishes, including puddings and pies. Simple whipped cream tastes amazing when a touch of vanilla bean powder is added, as a final flourish to many desserts. Apple pie calls for vanilla as one of the filling ingredients. All manner of fruit salad are especially appealing when this luxury spice has been added. Poached fruit can increase their succulence when a bit of vanilla is added to the final minutes of cooking.
Fruits also work well as a base for tempura batters. You can slice bananas, for instance, and dunk them in a tempura batter that contains vanilla, and then deep fry them until golden, and drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Fruits such as pineapple can be placed on metal skewers and grilled, with a vanilla dipping sauce for eating afterward.
