Description

Brandy extract is a liquid concentrate that captures the characteristic flavor of brandy, a distillate derived from wine or other fermented fruits. This extract is used in cooking to impart a deep, warm, and slightly sweet aroma to desserts, sauces, marinades, and creams, without the need to add a significant volume of alcohol.

Brandy originated in Europe, particularly in regions such as France (where it is known as cognac or armagnac) and Spain, although its production has spread worldwide. Brandy extract is usually obtained by concentrating or infusing the original distillate, preserving its essence and enhancing its use in recipes that require a sophisticated touch.

In terms of properties, brandy extract is valued for its ability to enhance flavors and add depth to various culinary preparations, without adding a significant amount of alcohol. It is especially popular in baking, where it complements ingredients such as chocolate, nuts, and dried fruits.

In the Hispanic world, while there are no exact synonyms for "brandy extract," it may be known or interpreted as brandy essence, brandy flavoring, or brandy concentrate, depending on the country and the product's availability in the market.
