I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Put 250g raw sugar and 5 beans into the bowl and grind up 1min/speed 9.
Scrape down the sides. Add the next lot of 250g raw sugar and 5 beans into the bowl and grind up 1min/speed 9.
Scrape down the sides and add the water and cream of tartar 5min/100deg/speed 2 measuring cup (MC) in place.
Scrape down sides and set 5mins/Varoma/speed 2, replace MC with simmer basket (to prevent splatter).
Scrape down sides (to make sure there isn't any dissolved sugar. If you leave any sugar undissolved, it will crystalise. You can still use paste but it will be harder to use).
NOTE: If it seems thick enough, STOP HERE. Else, set for 5mins/100deg/speed 2, MC off.
Pour HOT paste into sterilized glass jars.
Tip
You can secure the jar with a poppable lid then vacuum seal it by placing the sealed jar into a saucepan of water with the water about third of the way up the sides. Boil water for 15 minutes. It will last in the pantry for a year.
Once opened store in the fridge. You can leave it in the fridge for as long as you would a jar of jam. The sugar is the concentrate!
This recipe make about 650-700g of paste. Recommended to store paste in small jars (100-200g).
Use paste instead of vanilla essence for more intense and lovely flavour!!!
Original idea from //tickofyum.webs.com/apps/blog/show/21122824-vanilla-bean-paste with some slight modifications (cream of tartar and first 2 steps in method).

Hello, could I ask you where you buy your vanilla beans in bulk?
i use the paste a lot as well, but have only used store bought b4 and wanted to give this a try
thanks so much xx Tania
Has anyone tried this recipe with rapadura sugar? Straight swap, same weight?
This paste is lovely and so economical in comparison to the store bought paste. I was fortunate to have a large number of vanilla beans I purchased in Bali where they are much cheaper.
This is for the Tm5 but the recipe would be the same for the TM31 as well =)
Rookie thermie here - would the method be exactly the same for TM5?
So great and smells terrific. I buy vanilla beans in bulk and it works out very cheap.
This will save me so much money. I use vanilla paste a lot.
1 tablespoon cream of tartar.... I'm not sure why you can't see it but I see it in the ingredient list. hmmm, strange! =)
