A jar of vanilla extract may sit quietly for weeks while flavor develops, but the choices made at the beginning determine what went into that jar. The beans matter, and so does the alcohol surrounding them.
Extractohol supplies United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)-approved food-grade ethyl alcohol for culinary extraction. Vanilla, orange zest, mint, and lemon are among the culinary ingredients Extractohol specifically identifies for this use, giving you several directions for turning familiar ingredients into concentrated kitchen staples.
Choose Alcohol With the Recipe in Mind
Culinary extraction asks alcohol to do a specific job: draw flavor and aromatic compounds from an ingredient into a liquid that can later be measured into a recipe. Starting with USDA-approved food-grade ethyl alcohol keeps the solvent suited to that culinary purpose.
