Vanilla recipes

Vanilla is the fruit of an orchid plant (and no, it’s not one of your five a day). It’s extremely pernickety to grow, which adds to its expense whether you buy it as pods, extract or essence. Happily, a little goes a long way.

It’s also incredibly hard to describe the flavour, without saying it’s vanilla-y or chocolate-y! Either way, make the most of it in these creamy, scent-laden recipes, which include drinks, pannacottas and cakes.
