A delicious and versatile condiment made by reducing balsamic vinegar, adding a sweet and tangy flavor to salads, meats, and desserts.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup balsamic vinegar Use good quality balsamic vinegar for best flavor.
- 1/2 Tbsp honey Optional, adjust sweetness to preference.
Instructions

- Bring to a low boil, then reduce heat to keep at a simmer for 12-15 minutes.
- Stir occasionally until reduced at least by half. It's done when it lightly coats the back of a spoon.

Notes
Stir occasionally while it simmers to prevent sticking. For a thicker glaze, simmer for an extra few minutes. Customize with herbs or spices as desired.
