Vanilla, the most adored flavouring agent, comes from the pods of vanilla orchids, primarily the flat-leaved vanilla (Vanilla planifolia). These beautiful climbing creepers require specific conditions to prosper, and therefore vanilla cultivation is concentrated in tropical regions on the equatorial belt around the world. Here are some of the main vanilla suppliers / sources:

Madagascar: It is the world's leading producer of vanilla; It is responsible for about 80% of global vanilla output. Madagascar vanilla beans, known as bourbon vanilla madagascar, is prized for its rich, creamy flavour with hints of smoke and fruit. Madagascar vanilla cuts is the most preferred grade for the extraction industry. 

Indonesia: It is known to be the second-biggest vanilla supplier, Indonesia offers a broad array of vanilla types, and each has its own unique flavour profile. Tahitian (Papua New Guinea) vanilla beans, for example, boast a smoky, woody aroma, while Indonesian vanilla beans tend to be more earthy and complex.

Mexico: Mexican vanilla, often referred to as vanilla bean supreme, is known for its passionate floral and chocolatey notes. It is mostly preferred for baking due to its sharp and robust flavour.

Other sources: Other countries such as Uganda, Papua New Guinea, India, and China also grow vanilla in smaller quantities. These regions sometimes offer distinctive vanilla varieties with their own specific essence.

It's important to note that vanilla is a labour-intensive crop, and its price can fluctuate significantly depending upon different factors such as weather, pollination success, and global demand. Therefore it is considered to be one of the most expensive spices in the world, adding a touch of luxury and uniqueness to the dishes it flavours.

Vanilla is plucked from the shell of vanilla orchids and its versatility exceeds the scope of desserts and baked goods it is usually associated with.

The Culinary World:

  • Sweet Delights: Vanilla is a classic herb in countless sweet dishes like cakes, cookies, ice cream, custards, pudding, mousses and fudges etc.  
  • Tangy Surprises: Although vanilla can’t be expected in the place of savoury dishes at first sight, it is often used a bit to magnify the overall flavours in sauces, pickles, soups, and even stews.

 

Beyond the Kitchen:

  • Pleasant Fragrance: Vanilla is a well-liked fragrance component in perfumes and colognes for its sweet and calming aroma.
  • Restorative Potential: While scientific evidence is indecisive, some cultures use vanilla for its likely calming and mood boosting properties in traditional medicine.
  • Industrial Applications: The most popular application of vanilla is as a flavouring agent in numerous products like syrups and medications.

So the next time you catch a vanilla extract or a vanilla bean pod, remember its diverse uses and explore its potentials. 

While vanilla is primarily known for its appetizing flavour and aroma, there are some potential health benefits linked with it. Although the research on the benefits is currently limited, they shouldn't be considered a replacement for a healthy diet and lifestyle.

  1. Antioxidant effects: Vanilla consists of compounds like vanillin and vanillic acid with antioxidant effects. These antioxidants may help safeguard your cells from destruction caused by free radicals, potentially bringing-down the risk of chronic diseases.
  2. Potential cognitive health benefits: Some studies suggest that vanillin and vanillic acid may have neuroprotective effects, shielding brain cells and carry cognitive function. However, more research is needed to confirm these benefits.
  3. Antibacterial Effects: In vitro studies conclude that vanilla extract may have antibacterial properties, which oppose certain types of bacteria. However, the applicability of these findings to practical applications needs further inspections.
  4. Mental health: The fragrance of vanilla is connected with soothing and relaxing effects. Research shows that vanilla aromatherapy can lessen anxiety and promote relaxation in adults, and even calm new-born’s.
  5. Derma health: Some believe that vanilla extract or oil can be used topically for skin benefits like reducing inflammation and promoting healing. However, there is limited scientific evidence to support these claims, and potential skin irritation exists.
  6. Reduced sugar intake: Pure vanilla extract has scarcely any calories and carbohydrates than sugar, making it a potential substitute for those who are looking to reduce their sugar intake. Although, other ingredients in desserts typically contribute more significantly to sugar content.

Natural vanilla beans upraise desserts and savoury dishes alike with their complex taste and aroma. Here are some well-liked recipes that flaunt their magic:

Baking Charm:
