[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 451614, member: 1514"] dont know a thing about the pickles but I learned yesterday about how to make your own fresh, homemade, real vanilla extract and vanilla bean paste. I think it is incredible and will be doing it as soon as I can. You go buy some dried vanilla pods. You can find them where they sell spices. Then you place them in a jar large enough to hold them and still screw the lid on. Pour vodka in to cover the pods. Leave in pantry or dark, cool cabinet for at least a month but 6 months is even better. When done, take out the pods and you can squeeze out the bean paste to use in things like a vanilla cake, vanilla ice cream, anything you want the little brown specks to show real vanilla in. Store that in fridge. vanilla extract can be stored in either the fridge or the cabinet...vodka doesnt go bad. You could do the same thing with lemon rinds for lemon extract. Orange extract. Any extracts. I found this incredibly enlightening considering how expensive those little bottles are on the shelves...lol. I am going to be making my own vanilla, maybe lemon and most definitely pecan or almond. [/QUOTE]
