Vanilla is a flavor derived from orchids of the genus Vanilla, primarily
from the Mexican species.
Vanilla is the second most expensive spice after saffron, because
growing the vanilla seed pods is labor-intensive. Despite the expense,
vanilla is highly valued for its flavor. As a result, vanilla is widely used in
both commercial and domestic baking, perfume manufacture and aromatherapy.
Vanilla, the
Cultural History of the World’s Most Popular Flavor and Fragrance.
No wonder,
I hardly use vanilla in my kitchen, the second most expensive favor.
I never
use saffron, wondering how does it smell like or how does the dish will taste
like when flavored with it.
