How to Make Vanilla Powder
Cut 1 whole vanilla bean into 1 to 2 inch segments.
Grind the vanilla bean segments in a spice/coffee grinder for 1 minute until finely ground.
Add 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons (10g) cornstarch to the grinder. Blend for 2 additional minutes until the mixture is a fine powder.
Sift the powder through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any larger pieces of vanilla bean.
Store the vanilla powder in an airtight container at room temperature. For best flavor, allow to cure for at least 2 weeks before using.
