Vanilla Sugar

Place vanilla bean pod (not vanilla bean seeds or caviar) into an empty jar and add granulated sugar. This recipe is intended for home cooks who used the vanilla seeds in another recipe and have leftover vanilla pods that are empty of seeds. Repurpose them into something great!

Seal tightly and set aside for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, use your vanilla sugar in a variety of recipes.

Notes:
• To make your own powdered vanilla sugar, simply blend granulated vanilla sugar in a blender for 30–60 seconds.
• You can use both vanilla bean pods and seeds to make vanilla sugar. However, we like to use the seeds to make ice cream or other sweets, and use the spent pods to make vanilla sugar.
