Extracts 101: vanilla, mint, lemon, almond. Learn how to make your own extracts and save money.

Extracts are so expensive to buy so this is very good advice for us to make our own and cut down on expenses. I make my own vanilla extract and it is so much better than store bought. It takes only what a recipe calls for instead of doubling which is what I always seemed to need with the store extract.
