Zubereitung von Kittencal's Homemade Vanilla

Carefully cut 2 vanilla beans lengthwise with a sharp knife.
Divide the vanilla beans evenly between two clean, narrow-necked bottles (approximately 1 cup capacity each).
If necessary, cut the vanilla beans crosswise to ensure they fit comfortably into the bottles.
Pour 1 cup of high-quality vodka into each bottle, completely submerging the vanilla beans.
Seal the bottles tightly and store them in a cool, dark place for at least 2 months. For a richer, more intense flavor, allow them to steep for 4-6 months.
Once steeped, your homemade vanilla extract is ready to use! The longer it steeps, the more potent the flavor will be.
