I liked making vanilla because I was able to make it in the richer French vanilla style and it worked as the perfect accent to other dishes - a scoop of homemade vanilla served with a homemade cake, for instance. For me the appeal was the simple purity of the most basic flavors getting a chance to shine. I never did anything too showy flavor wise with it. My dad made a killer pistachio and an inedible mint chip.
