Question: What do they mean by 'alcohol based extract' in this vanilla flavouring or any other flavourings!? thanks!
Answers:
Vanilla essence comes in two types: alcohol based and oil based!. The process is similar it's just that in the one case they soak the beans in the alchol to infuse it with the essence and the other they use oil!. Depending on what you're making, you can alter the flavour or texture based on which one you use!. I prefer the oil based myself, but that is a personal preference!. I think it has a stronger, purer flavour!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

They extract the flavour by soaking vanilla beans in alcohol, then evaporate it until it has a standard alcohol/vanilla ratio (and you can still pour it easily)!.

I used to know a guy who went to jail, and on his birthday, since he behaved himself, they let him work in the kitchen!. The only place where you can get alcohol in jail (they apparently have vats of vanilla essence)!. Vanilla essence has a higher alcohol content than wine!. You'll get totally trashed if you drink enough!. My friend had a great birthday!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
