I am also in a Pernod fix. Can't justify buying a $70 bottle of alcohol for 1 Tablespoon required for a recipe - another Ina Garten recipe I should add, from her recipe book: How Easy is That? The recipe is Roasted Shrimp with Feta. I have some pure Anise extract and a good airline sized bottle of Vodka from Estonia. On the side of teh Anise extract it says 1/2 tsp. extract = 1 tbsp anise liqueur. Maybe I don't need to Vodka after all...
