1 or 2 vanilla beans
1 tsp. liquid soy lecithin (avail. at
health food stores)
2 Tbls. honey
2 Tbls. oil
Cut up vanilla bean in small pieces
and add to boiling water. Let stand 6-8
hours in a sealed container so there is
no volatile action and so the flavor
does not escape. After soaking, pour
the bean and water into blender and
liquefy. Strain. Return to blender and

Tbls. oil. Blend a few seconds. Pour
