Vanilla beans are the long, slender, dark brown pods of the Vanilla orchid native to Mexico. They are a popular ingredient in baking, cooking, and confectionery, as they add a rich, sweet, and complex flavor and aroma to a variety of dishes. Vanilla beans contain natural compounds called vanillin, which give them their characteristic flavor and aroma. They are often used in desserts such as ice cream, cakes, and custards, as well as in beverages such as coffee and tea. Vanilla beans are also used to produce vanilla extract, a common ingredient in many baked goods and desserts.
