Balsamic Vinegar
Balsamic vinegar is known for its rich dark, color and tangy flavor. Straight from the bottle it makes a wonderful salad dressing when combined with olive oil. However, if you take a little time to reduce this delicious condiment you can create a versatile sauce and topping for anything from meat to fresh fruits. Balsamic vinegar is easy to reduce and in a few short minutes you can enhance your meal with unexpected flavor.
Instructions
1. Place the skillet on the stove and pour the vinegar into the skillet. Turn the heat to medium-high.
2. Bring the vinegar to a boil and then reduce the heat and allow it to simmer.
3. Whisk the vinegar occasionally as it simmers to prevent burning.
4. Simmer for about two to four minutes or until the vinegar has almost reached your desired consistency. If you're using it for a sauce it should be moderately viscous and syrupy.
5. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the vinegar to sit a few more minutes. It will continue to thicken.
6. Pour the warm vinegar over fish, meat or on top of fresh fruit such as strawberries.
