It is a key ingredient in dishes ranging from crème brûlée to Japanese purin. It is the quintessential ice cream flavor in the United States. Eric T. Jennings explains how the world?s only edible orchid, originally endemic to Central America, became embedded in the international culinary and cultural landscape.   In tracing vanilla?s rise, Jennings describes how in the 1840s an enslaved boy named Edmond Albius discovered a way to pollinate vanilla orchids with a toothpick or needle?an ingenious process that is still in use.
