Natural Vanilla Bean Paste is a convenient, versatile alternative to whole vanilla beans. This rich concentrated paste adds rich flavor plus gorgeous flecks of real vanilla seeds. Use it anywhere you would use a vanilla extract or wherever the flavor and appearance of vanilla bean is desired. We especially love to use it in cheesecakes, french toast, creme brulee, rice pudding and ice cream. 1 Tbs. Vanilla Bean Paste = 1 vanilla bean or 1 Tbs. vanilla extract Kosher certified � Gluten-free � Natural
