5 Premium Tonka Beans - Whole Natural Tonka Beans - 100% Raw & Pure Tonquin, Strong Fragrance (Dipteryx Odorata Tonkin Pods). Edible Premium Food-grade Cumaru Kumaru Tonka Beans For Cuisine

I had heard about this ingredient from a YouTube video and was intrigued. I bought this because they seem to be good quality without having to buy a ton of them. I used this to make shortbread cookies, swapping out the vanilla for this. Grated it in the dough like nutmeg with a microplane. I ended up using a whole bean for one batch. I served the cookies at a friend's game night and they were very popular. Everyone loved the flavor! It is a nice change from a standard vanilla or almond plus everyone loves a banned food story. FYI you'd have to eat a hand full of the whole beans to get any kind of negative health effects from this ingredient. The flavor is absolutely interesting. Its like a subtle, musky, almost floral almond extract with vanilla notes and rosy tones. It almost feels middle eastern or Indian in a way I can't explain. The bean imparts more of an aroma than a flavor. The aroma is familiar yet exotic. It is warm yet not too heavy for use in the summer. I absolutely love it!

Incredible. They really do taste like a more complex and floral vanilla, steep a fourth of one grated into milk for something extraordinary or make into extract by shaving and bottling with a high proof spirit.

Made tonka bean ice cream with these. Wonderful. Better than vanilla. And comparable to vanilla pods in price.

Bonne qualité
