WHAT MAKES UGANDAN GOURMET VANILLA BEANS UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT?

The most fertile land of Uganda is the birthplace of these flavorful vanilla beans. This place is known as the Pearl of Africa, which makes it ideal for vanilla bean production. The soil texture and climate conditions help the vanilla beans grow in a good range. The amazing taste of growing vanilla has provided the country with a high reputation in the industry. With the Ugandan farmers, we also worked directly in the field to grow quality vanilla beans in their farming techniques and buy those at fair trade charges.

EXPERT TIPS TO ENHANCE THE LIFE OF VANILLA BEANS

• Storage: Experts recommend submerging beans in 70-90 proof alcohol if you want to keep the beans soft and supple and prevent mold growth for a really long time. Storing beans in the refrigerator or freezer is not a good idea. Rather, you can vacuum seal the beans. Even though it is not a permanent storage method just like alcohol, it will easily extend the shelf life for up to a year. If stored outside of alcohol, vanilla beans can react differently in different environments and temperatures. For more information in this regard, read our blogs. how to store vanilla beans blog

• Re-use vanilla pods: Storing the empty vanilla pods can be helpful to make vanilla sugar. All you need is to take a jar and two or three crushed vanilla bean pods with a 3/4th cup sugar for one pod. Mix all together for one or two weeks to make it ready to use and prepare vanilla powder.
