Tonka Beans the South American beauty. With Tonka Beans less is more as the taste/fragrance is so strong you only need a very small amount; just the gratings of approximately 1/8-1/4 of a bean. They are actually a member of the pea family, Dipteryx Oderata, but the seed is actually more of a bean shape. The fragrance and taste work in combination together, providing strong vanilla, cherry, cinnamon, caramel and honey. Smokey notes can also come through.

  • Use the gratings of a Tonka bean much the same as nutmeg into the base for ice cream, pannacotta, custards, creme brulee etc.
  • They can also be combined with cocoa and chocolate in chocolate cakes and biscuits and of course desserts.
  • Like vanilla, Tonka Beans can also be used in savoury cooking, such as fish dishes.
  • Licorice, nutmeg, cassia (cinnamomum cassia) and Tonka bean all contain a compound called Coumarin, which in large amounts can be toxic*.

*To quote www.theatlantic.com/health journal Humans would need to eat an unreasonably bovine amount of tonka bean to fall ill. The shavings of a single bean is enough for 80 plates. At least 30 entire tonka beans (250 servings, or 1 gram of coumarin total) would need to be eaten to approach levels reported as toxic about the same volume at which nutmeg and other everyday spices are toxic.
