If you’ve tried cooking a fancy desert recipe in the past, then it might have called for a fresh vanilla bean. I always cheat and use vanilla extract. The bean are just too expensive in the States.
These vanilla beans, offered to us in a tribal village outside Bajawa, were going for the rock-bottom price of $3/bunch. I tried to buying all three just on principle, but Martin talked me out of it. Rats share an affinity for fresh vanilla and I’m not interested in any more of their visits.
