Spice Category: Extracts

Extracts are highly concentrated flavors extracted onto an alcohol base. The industry minimum is 33% alcohol for all extracts (ours are 35%), which is burned off in the cooking or baking process, leaving a rich flavor. For a great depth of flavor, try layering a dish with both fresh ingredients along with an extract, such as freshly squeezed lemon juice along with lemon extract.

Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie.
