Originating in Mexico (vanilla's birthplace) Bourbon vanilla cuttings were taken in the 1800s and grown by the French in large plantations in Reunion then known as the Ile de Bourbon thus explaining the origins of its name. Bourbon vanilla has the familiar vanilla flavor we have come to know and love, such as that in ice cream, flavored desserts and drinks. Other areas where bourbon beans are grown include Comoros Islands, Tahiti, Malaysia, Mozambique, Seychelles, Uganda, Guatemala, and Mexico.  How do I use vanilla beans, now that I have bought them?
