Instant Vanilla Extract Premium PD Recipe

2019-12-03

We can make gourmet-quality vanilla extract using our Instant Pot. I’m thrilled to share this cost-cutting, time-saving method that has made me feel like the savviest foodie. This efficient technique uses fewer beans and produces a bolder, more aromatic extract than time-aged or commercial extracts. I’m not doing holiday shopping this year. I will spend an evening filling my home with the essence of vanilla while brewing extract to fill environmentally friendly repurposed glass bottles. In place of holiday cards I’m making phone calls to reconnect with loved ones while decorating labels to dress up my vanilla extract gifts for everyone on my gift list. Protective Diet recipes are created to save time, cut costs, and improve food quality while offering protection to humans, animals, and our planet.

    This is the BEST vanilla extract by far…I would give it 10 stars if I could. The fact that it is SO much less expensive then store bought is a bonus…and so quick and easy in the Instant Pot!

    When you use 2 PINT sized jars, do you split the vanilla beans between the 2 jars as you do the vodka?

    Wow! I thought I would have to wait 6 months for my new batch of vanilla extract to be ready to use. Now I can pressure it and use it right away! Thanks Julie

    Use your newest jars. Older jars may have small cracks due to stirring with metal spoons. Always use the rack, do not tighten lid and naturally release presure to avoid broken jars during cooking.
    Madagascar vanilla beans have a clasic vanilla flavor and Tahician beans have a sweet fruity aroma.

December 1, 2013 I found Protective Diet after someone in another Facebook plant based diet group mentioned it. I went immediately to the website and I just knew it was for me. I joined PD-Ed right away and started eating a Protective Diet. I’ve never looked back. I’ve struggled with my weight my entire life.… Read more or comment “Karla F.”

My whole life I’ve fought a weight problem. My highest was 243 in 2003. I’ve been on so many programs and diets. Joined gyms and bought workout videos. I could lose weight but I could not seem to stay with the program to keep it off. About four years ago I finally made it to… Read more or comment “Diane O.”

Ok, So the No Fat – Not Yo Cheeze Sauce was insanely good! I made the home made tortilla chips too. I highly recommend this and Protective Diet!

February will be four years on Protective Diet!

When I was 379 pounds, I never even considered exercising let alone buying a propelled kayak. But my kayak is on layaway and I am so excited for spring 2019 to get out on our beautiful lakes in North Idaho. I’ll be paddling and rowing, taking in the scenery from a whole different perspective. Another… Read more or comment “February will be four years on Protective Diet!”

I completed my first 30 days yesterday. Although Julie encourages us to throw away the scale, I’m not yet ready to part with it. I do recognize however that I’ve given it far too much power in the past, letting it determine the type of day/week I’m going to have and my confidence in my… Read more or comment “Jessica D.”

Finally!

Even since discovering PD a few years ago, I’ve been all over the place with diets and uncontrolled blood sugar, and recently – scary high tricycerides and cholesterol. I don’t know why it took me so long to realize that this is the best, healthiest way for my body. My blood sugar has NEVER been… Read more or comment “Finally!”

never has losing weight been so easy

15 pounds in 36 days! Never have I had such success losing weight – and never has losing weight been so easy or so pleasant. I know things will slow down as I get closer to my correct weight, but what a great feeling this is. Julie Marie Christensen you sure are a good teacher!
