Vanilla sugar

1 ½ tsp vanilla sugar can most of the time be substituted with 1 tsp of vanilla extract.
You can also make your own. Get a pint size mason jar, fill it with granulated sugar, and add one vanilla bean cut into 1 inch pieces. Close up and store in a cool dark cupboard for 6 weeks. That’s it. Replenish with sugar as needed. You can also purchase Dr. Oetker vanilla sugar. One pack equals 1 1/2 teaspoons.

Crème fraîche

You need a pint size mason jar with lid, 1 pint heavy cream, and 3 tablespoons of buttermilk. Mix in the jar and let sit at room temperature for 2 days. Refrigerate and that’s it. Crème fraîche is a good substitute for butter on bread.
