Cómo preparar Essence Of Vanilla

Combine 1 cup of high-quality vanilla bean shreds and 1 cup of high-quality brandy in a clean, airtight glass bottle.
Securely cork the bottle.
Gently shake the bottle once a day for the first week, then once every few days for the next two months. This helps to infuse the brandy with the vanilla's aromatic essence.
After three months, the essence is ready. Strain it through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined strainer into a clean bottle. Discard the solids.
Store in a cool, dark place. To use, pour through a tea strainer to remove any remaining particles and use half the amount you would typically use of vanilla extract.
