I started making things from scratch to save money but now it's my favorite hobby.

The homemade vanilla extract can be ready in 3 or 4 months, but it definitely gets better the longer it infuses. You know it’s ready to start using once it no longer smells like vodka and smells like vanilla extract. At least that’s been my experience, I hope you find this helpful.

Great news!

Love this video. Where do you buy your vanilla beans? They can be pricey.

[@sarajanecase]

I ordered mine from vanilla bean kings!

You don't need any fancy sauerkraut weights. Just take a zip lock bag (or something similar), fill it with small stones and water or just water, knot it closed, disinfect the outside and use that as a weight. That's what my mother and grandmother did and what I also do when I need a fermentation weight.

I would LOVE a bread video! My husband loves bagels and we spend a lot of money getting bagels for breakfast each week. Maybe this will entice us to try a homemade option :)

[@sarajanecase]

Omg yes! Our kiddo is the same!

I started attempting to make sourdough last week. It was a fail, so I made focaccia instead and one loaf with yeast and sourdough. Not giving up though, I am determined to learn!! 😅 It is so empowering to make food for your family when you thought you couldn’t learn ❤

[@sarajanecase]

Yes! It took me a few loaves to get it!

[@JessicaU]

Yes! Can you please make a bagel tutorial?

[@sarajanecase]

Noted! 🥰

The imitation vanilla being made from beaver glands is true. Ish. So it used to be how they made it but it became illegal because it was seen as animal abuse. Now it’s just made with different chemicals. That’s cool how you make yours though. I may need to try this!

[@sarajanecase]

Wild!

I have a feeling this video will blow up!

Add kefir to mayonnaise to preserve for longer ❤️

[@sarajanecase]

Ooh! Thank you!

Hi! This is random, but would you ever consider doing a travel retreat in the future? I know you had one planned that I think was canceled due to COVID? Anyway, I’d be highly interested ☺️

[@sarajanecase]

Hi Madi! I won’t say never but I don’t see that in the near future just because I have started a new job and it may complicate that some!

[@markharkcom]

Can’t wait till she finds out how almond milk is made lol

[@sarajanecase]

Don’t be rude Mark.

[@JessicaU]

Where do you recommended buying vanilla beans from?

[@sarajanecase]

I did vanilla bean kings!
