Description

Trader Joe's Bourbon Vanilla Bean Paste is a thick vanilla ingredient that combines concentrated Bourbon vanilla extract with visible vanilla bean seeds. The 4 oz (113 g) jar gives bakers a way to add both vanilla flavor and the visual specks associated with vanilla bean to recipes without scraping a whole vanilla pod. The existing product information identifies the product as originating in Mauritius.

Use the paste in cookies, cakes, custards, ice cream, frosting, whipped cream, pastry cream, sauces, or drinks that call for vanilla. The existing product information provides a simple 1:1 substitution guideline: use 1 teaspoon of vanilla bean paste in place of 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Because the paste is thicker and contains vanilla seeds, it can be particularly useful in recipes where the appearance of the vanilla flecks is desirable.

The verified ingredients are Invert Sugar Syrup, Concentrated Bourbon Vanilla Extract (Extractives of Vanilla Beans in Water, Ethyl Alcohol), Vanilla Bean Seeds, and Xanthan Gum. The vanilla extract component contains ethyl alcohol. No major allergen statement is listed in the existing product information, so review the current physical jar for complete labeling. Per 1 tsp (5g), existing nutrition information lists 15 calories, 3g carbohydrate, and 3g total sugars including 3g added sugars. Keep the jar tightly closed in a cool, dry place.
