It isn't white it's a cream color and the main ingredient isn't the vanilla extract, it's the cream.

Regarding your Calphalon: The rivets and stainless base that holds the handle in place need constant cleaning Grease seems to polymerize and turn brown. It becomes akin to a lacquer. Be careful what you use to clean it.It can remove the black color from the pan and expose the aluminum.

And don't stir with anything that could scratch the surface - aluminum isn't good stuff - you don't want it leaching into your foods. I've been replacing my Calphalon with Le Creuset.

If so they did warn me against doing so. They said that it will build up and be very difficult to remove. They also suggest heating up the pans before adding any fats to the pan.

If stubborn grease or dirt won't come off they said to soak overnight. They also recommended to use "Bar Keepers Friend" for cleaning and it should look like new! ArabianKnightress 14 months ago .

I never used nonstick spray on the pans. I tend to wipe the bottoms with olive oil when necessary. Even if you just boil water you'll end up with the brownish buildup on the rivets.

I've tried using a toothbrush and the stuff you use to clean glass cooktops and nothing has worked. Heating up aluminum is tricky. It's fine until you reach a certain temp and then it's dangerous.

Wok style stir frying is a no no in aluminum. I like the porcelain coated cast iron much better and it's so much easier to clean.

Often, vanilla ice cream is made with artificial vanilla. Artificial vanilla can be clear. The brown color comes from leaching out various other things in the vanilla pod.

Those other compounds are the reasons that real vanilla tastes better than artificial. (Though when mixed into something strongly flavored, like chocolate chip cookies, the differences are actually too small for many tasters to notice. )But even if you make your ice cream with real vanilla, it doesn't take a lot.

Really good ice creams don't make extracts: they boil the vanilla bean with the cream. It does tint the cream a bit, but not all that much. You're talking about a LOT of cream here (say, a teaspoon or two two a pint of cream).

One other thing: ice cream is full of bubbles. A good ice cream will be 20% air; cheap ice creams will be 50% air. Bubbles tend to splash light around, mixing up the colors and appearing white.

The primary one is the middle one: there's just not that much vanilla in vanilla ice cream. It's potent stuff.

Thanks everyone, nope never knew all these ice cream facts and I never saw Clear Vanilla extract before either :) ArabianKnightress 14 months ago .

Clear vanilla extract is available in cake decorating stores; it's used to make icing that stays white. Amazon even has it:amazon.com/Wilton-Clear-Vanilla-Oz-Bottl... artificial vanilla, but it's good enough for a lot of uses. Com/Wilton-Clear-Vanilla-Oz-Bottle/dp/B0000VM8Y0/ref=sr_1_1?

I don't know, AK, but it is the same theory with liquid soap, and detergents. Most have color but yet the suds are white. MD;) .

I am great, AK, thank you for asking. I hope you are well too! Yes, purple is my favorite color anyway!

And you can actually get clear vanilla extract, too...this one might not be pure vanilla that I am showing, though...Have fun with your Calphalon! What are you going to make first?! Com/Wilton-Clear-Vanilla-Oz-Bottle/dp/B0000VM8Y0/ref=sr_1_2?

It is white because of the cream. Around 70% percent of a vanilla ice cream is white cream and that's why the brown color of the vanilla extract will not be visible.

Because in a quart of vanilla ice cream, there is no more than a few teaspoons of vanilla extract. The rest is mostly milk. Put a few teaspoons of vanilla extract into a quart of milk and you won't see much colour change.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
