How to Make Ruth S Homemade Vanilla Extract
- Combine 1 cup of high-quality vodka or bourbon with 10 vanilla beans, split lengthwise and scraped.
- In a clean, airtight glass jar, add the vanilla bean mixture and vodka.
- Seal the jar tightly and store it in a cool, dark place for at least 2 months, preferably 6 months or more. The longer it infuses, the richer the flavor will become.
- After the infusion period, strain the vanilla extract through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the vanilla beans.
- Transfer the strained vanilla extract into a clean, airtight bottle for storage.
- Your homemade vanilla extract is now ready to use! Enjoy its superior flavor in your favorite recipes.
