Homemade Extracts Preparation
To make an extract, simply combine ingredients in a 1/2-pint Mason jar and set aside to steep for at least 3 days. Each recipe yields 3/4 cup extract, which can be stored anywhere and should keep for up to a year. If you want to give a gift of an extract, strain a portion (for aesthetics), transfer it to a little apothecary bottle, and add a piece of vanilla bean, or a spiral of lemon or orange peel. For Vanilla Extract, combine 2 vanilla beans, cut in half lengthwise and then chopped (about 1 Tbsp), 1/2 cup brandy, and 1/4 cup water. For Lemon Extract, thinly peel 1 lemon with a vegetable peeler, taking care not to include any pith. Dice the peel (about 2 Tbsp) and combine it with 1/2 cup vodka and 1/4 cup water. For Orange Extract, thinly peel 1/2 navel orange (as above), and cut the peel into chunks (about 1 1/2 Tbsp). Combine with 1/4 cup vodka and 1/2 cup water.
