The last time I made a rice pudding I put a vanilla pod in - bit extravagant but completely gorgeous (and it stopped all the lil black flecks from spoiling its milky white goodness

I slit them, and scrape seeds out and put them in any cakes or sweet things I'm making - I just love vanilla - great in hm yoghurt. I then keep them in the sugar until I need another scrape of seeds - it's amazing how I can always get a few more seeds out of them. I put them in rice pudding type thingies too - you can rinse and dry them after and put them back in the sugar as well!0

Most supermarkets stock them, they're usually near the baking stuff/colourings and flavourings in cigar shaped tubes. If you can't get them there then you could try a local deli, if there's one near you.0

Hello there,
Here is a good website with tips and recipes for vanilla pods and they have very cheap and good quality Madagascan vanilla pods.
