Heavenly Cinnamon Stars from the Vanilla Sky image

I watched Chef Rakesh Sethi, the creator of these mind-blowing stars, make these on TV, yesterday. These look like they were made in heaven and were gently showered upon the Earth by a fairy on a dark cold night! These stars will be in my X'mas basket this year, for sure. Please note that the preparation time does not include the refrigeration time.

THE VANILLA SKY

This nutty flavoured cocktail challenges the palate and leaves an impressive aftertaste. DH and I loved it. As "Food & Drink", from which this recipe is adopted, puts it: If you have time, rim the glass first with powdered hazelnuts and dried cranberries for a truly autumnal cocktail - something to sip at your leisure on those evengins wnen you really don't feel like dancing around the walnut tree.

Time 11m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/4 cup fresh cranberries or 1/4 cup frozen cranberries
1 1/2 ounces vanilla vodka
1/2 ounce Amaretto

Steps:

  • In a cocktail shaker, muddle cranberries with the back of a spoon.
  • Fill the shaker with ice and add the vodka and amaretto.
  • Shake sharply and stran into a Martini glass.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality vanilla beans for the best flavor. Madagascar Bourbon vanilla beans are considered to be some of the finest in the world.
  • Use a sharp knife to split the vanilla beans lengthwise. This will help release the flavor.
  • Scrape the seeds out of the vanilla beans with the back of a knife. This is where most of the flavor is concentrated.
  • Add the vanilla beans and seeds to your recipe at the beginning of the cooking process. This will give them time to infuse their flavor into the dish.
  • Vanilla extract can be substituted for vanilla beans in most recipes. However, vanilla beans will give your dish a more intense flavor.
  • Store vanilla beans in a cool, dark place. They can be stored for up to two years.

Conclusion:

Vanilla is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes. It is a popular flavoring for desserts, but it can also be used in savory dishes. Vanilla adds a warm, sweet flavor that can enhance the other ingredients in a dish. Whether you are using vanilla beans or vanilla extract, be sure to use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
