#3 and I do.

#3 of course - but add vodka and time and you can use it in #1 and #2 as well.

This time the challenge was getting the recipe on the first try, since I could see it in any of them.
#3 on the first try. Have to make some today!

I do have this one and rarely use it. Need to get with the program.

I love this one, I am making some extract right now.
Posted by: Susan | August 11, 2012 at 02:00 PM
I'll say 3, but could be used in 1, 2. ; )
Posted by: Angela | August 11, 2012 at 04:01 PM
It's 3!

are there any other "V" spices? Is that a dumb question by me? (#3 :-)
Posted by: Mimi | August 11, 2012 at 11:17 PM
I'm with Susan; I would use it in 1 as well as 3 and probably 2 and I am rarely without it in several forms.

3. Like Kalyn, I have it around but very rarely use it.

#3, the world's 2nd most expensive spice that is now being grown in the Bay of Plenty here in NZ, and is a very successful crop in the Kingdom of Tonga.

#3 and I'm soaking some in another V - vodka!

Posted by: Paz | August 13, 2012 at 04:23 PM
I believe, for the first time, I actually know this one!
Posted by: Elizabeth F | August 15, 2012 at 03:05 PM
3, but 1 and 2 also, as all the same thing.
