It comes in a glycerine (thick,easy to pour in drops) or alcohol based and both are legal. It's at HFS and Whole Foods. It is expensive. Jodi who authored Grain-Free Gourmet makes her own. This recipe is from the Internet http://www.kitchenproject.com/vanilla/4FoldVanillaExtract.htm Do not use rum or brandy, only Vodka. Homemade is a lot cheaper!! Carol F.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 I make my own, easy, ready in 6 weeks, but the longer it stands, the richer the flavor. Take 3 or so vanilla beans for a pint or 100 proof vodka...100 proof produces better vanilla flavor than 90 proof. Cover in a glass jar, place in a dark place, and shake twice daily. After 3 or so weeks, you do not have to shake any more...you don't have to shake, but it improves the osmosis of vanilla flavor in the alcohol.
