Ingredients

  • 250 ml soy milk or any other plant milk
  • 1 tbsp starch
  • 30 g sugar
  • one vanilla pod alternatively 1 tbsp vanilla sugar or 1 tsp vanilla aroma
  • 1 pinch of tumeric for the light yellow color

Instructions

  • Cut through the skin of the vanilla pod with a small knife. Then scrape out the black grains of the pod with the tip of the knife.
  • Mix the cold milk with starch, sugar, turmeric, vanilla and add the scratched vanilla pod. Mix the ingredients thoroughly with a whisk until there are no lumps left.
  • Place the liquid in a saucepan and let it cook over medium heat for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly with the whisk to prevent burning. Then take the scrapped vanilla pod out of the sauce.
  • If you let the vanilla sauce cool for 5-10 minutes, it becomes a little firmer and creamier. Serve the vanilla sauce warm with your dessert or pastry.
  • The vanilla sauce is best served after 10 minutes and not, when you put it in the fridge and then reheated it.
