1. Pour out about a cup of the Vodka to make room in the bottle before you start stuffing the bans in:
2. Cut the vanilla beans allong the length and open them up:
3. I cut all ten beans and stuck them in the bottle:
4. Pour the extra Vodka back in the bottle to cover the beans and dump the left over. Et Voila! Vanilla! Or it will be in about 4 months. I've checked it a couple of times and it's starting to smell really goooood!

Wow! Cool!
Enjoy using it! mmmmmmm....vanilla!
I should give that a try. But I don't remember seeing the vanilla beans at Costco lately. Maybe next Christmas.
Dump the leftover vodka?! I'll try to find a use for that when the time comes.
I think that I will give it a try, too. I still have beans from New Caledonia.
Are you saying that half a dozen vanilla beans will produce a quart (or a fifth) of vanilla? Will it be as strong as what you buy in a bottle? Or will you need to use so much that you'll be flying high after eating a slice of cake?
