Şekerli Vanilin is Dr. Oetker's vanillin sugar: a fine mix of sugar and vanillin with an anti-caking agent, packed in small single-use sachets. This pack holds five 5 g sachets. According to Dr. Oetker, one whole sachet is meant for 500 g of flour or 1 litre of milk, so a single sachet is enough to flavour a cake batter, a pot of pudding or a batch of cookies. The maker states that the product is produced gluten-free, and the brand says pastries, desserts and drinks have been flavoured with Dr. Oetker Şekerli Vanilin since 1894.
Use it wherever you want a warm, familiar vanilla note: in the batter for kek, poğaça and kurabiye, in sütlaç, muhallebi and kazandibi, in whipped cream and custard, or sprinkled over fruit and pancakes. Stir a sachet into warm milk for a simple flavoured drink, or mix it into yoghurt with a spoonful of honey for an easy breakfast.
Because each portion comes in its own sealed sachet, there is nothing to weigh or measure: open one, tip it in and keep the others closed until the next recipe.
