Vanilla Extract replacements?!
I am going to make a cheesecake but i ran out of vanilla extract!. Can i just skip the vanilla or should i replace it with something else!? If so what!? and if i skip it will the cheesecake taste horrible!?!? Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
It won't taste horrible but the vanilla definitely enhances the flavor!. You can try lemon as recommended, or even just some lemon zest for a nice backround flavor, and almond extract would go really well with the lemon!. If you have any other extracts on hand, if its a flavor you might like in a cheesecake then go ahead and try it, ie!. maple or other sweet flavors!. You CAN try a powder like a spice or even powdered vanilla if you have it but you may want to dilute it in a tiny amount of water first so it blends in well!. You don't have to worry about replacing the liquid amount of the vanilla because its not important in the integrity of the cheesecake; its merely a flavor!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
You can use a liquor that will enhance the flavor of the type of cheese cake you are making!.
Chocolate cheese cake would taste good with amaretto, orange liquor!.
Even a plain cheese cake would taste good with a almost any flavor liquor!. Watch the mint ones they can be a bit strong!.
You could use orange juice also, since it is not as strong and an extract you will have to replace some of the other liquid with the juice then use all the zest from the orange to get more of the orange flavor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Vanilla extract enhances the flavor of the cheese cake!.
I don't ever use the vanilla anyway, I use Lemon or Almond extracts!.
Extracts just enhance the flavor of things!. They are NOT necessary to the final product in any way!.
The cheesecake will be just fine without the Vanilla!. Or you can use anything else that you happen to have in the shelf!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
