O Que É Brandy Extract?
Brandy extract is a concentrated liquid flavoring that mimics the taste of brandy without containing significant alcohol. It's produced by extracting the aromatic compounds from brandy or a blend of flavorings designed to replicate brandy's complex profile. This makes it a popular choice for adding a sophisticated, warm note to a variety of dishes.
"While often used in desserts, brandy extract's warming notes can surprisingly elevate savory glazes for poultry or pork."
