Vanilla Simple Syrup Recipe
A really simple syrup, this is one of my favorites to use.
Vanilla Simple Syrup
Sugar 1#
Water 1#
Vanilla Bean 1ea
Subtitution: Use 2 Tablespoons Pure Vanilla Extract, 4 if imitation
1. Combine sugar and water in a pot.
2. Split and scrape the vanilla bean, add to the pot.
3. Cook on low until the sugar is dissolved.
4. Turn up to high, bring syrup to a boil.
5. Turn off the heat, strain.
6. Let cool before using.
Get Smart: Omit straining your syrup by reserving the outer pod of your vanilla bean. Add it to some granulated sugar and shake occaisionally. In two weeks you'll have vanilla sugar!
