Homemade vanilla sugar (traditional method & Thermomix)
Description
There's no need to wait several days for the sugar to become impregnated with vanilla: with this quick method, you can obtain fragrant, authentic sugar in just a few minutes. The little black dots on the vanilla seeds are proof of its authenticity. Ideal for flavouring cakes, biscuits, compotes or creams, this sugar keeps for a very long time in a simple airtight jar. It's also an excellent idea for a gourmet gift.
