The easiest from-scratch pantry staple (2 ingredients)

Hey friend,

If there’s one pantry staple I think everyone should make at least once, it’s homemade vanilla extract.

Not because it’s fancy — but because it’s simple, real, and quietly powerful.

You only need:
• Vanilla beans
• Vodka
• A jar
• Time

That’s it.

Once you start a jar, it sits in your cupboard doing its thing, slowly turning into rich, real vanilla — the kind that makes baked goods taste warm and deep instead of flat and artificial.

I shared:
• The exact recipe
• Why Madagascar vanilla is so special
• How to reuse beans for a second batch
• And why homemade vanilla makes such a good gift
