Thank you so much for your ideas. I have been reading about using vanilla in savory dishes, and that is what started me on my quest to find out more. I love your idea about drying the empty pods!

I've got a sad question! I got Vanilla beans from Malaysia, and my dear MIL has been storing them in the refrigerator for the past 6 months (eeks! I know) If i take them out and keep them, will they spoil after enjoying that air-conditioned life for 6 months? or do I just use them up immediately? Not much of a baker, so really struggling with how to use it! Okay! I’ve got a sad question!
