Tonka Beans?
I’ve had a rather large (for a spice, anyway) Tonka Bean in my array for about a year now. I have no previous experience with this spice, but know that you do not grate it (like nutmeg) nor split it (like vanilla beans). Instead the bean is to soak or simmer in a liquid (preferably of cow origin, I think) to infuse it with a “vanilla-like” flavor. However, I know it is used...
shotgun-season asked: oh god, 50's Dior, that's amazing! I have Chanel, Gucci, YSL, Schiaparelli, Pucci, etc etc but from 6+ years of thrifting (which I also did for a long time for income). It can be so hard and tedious but soooo addicting and rewarding. Yay to good eyes and good finds.
