Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
Vanilla extract
Using a sharp knife, split the vanilla bean lengthwise to expose the seeds. Place the bean in a jar or bottle and fill with vodka. Close the jar, shake it a few times, and store in a cool, dark place. Let the jar sit for 6-8 weeks, shaking it 1-2 times a week. The mixture will darken over time. When the extract begins to reduce in volume, add more vodka and shake. Also, whenever you use a vanilla bean, don't hesitate to return it to the jar after use. This will saturate the vanilla extract, making it last almost forever.Vanilla sugar
Split 2 vanilla beans and scrape out the seeds into an airtight container with 3 cups of granulated sugar. Coat the pods with sugar and seal tightly. Let the sugar sit for 2 weeks. Use as you would regular granulated sugar.Vanilla Almond
Preheat oven to 150°C. Whisk the egg whites with vanilla extract, add the almonds, and mix well. Combine the sugar, salt, and cinnamon and stir into the mixture. Arrange in a single layer on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 150°C for 20 minutes. Remove and cool on parchment paper, separating the nuts.
