Balsamic Glaze. Sticky sweet liquid gold.  The dark rich tangy sweetness a little drizzle of balsamic glaze provides is undeniably addictive. It makes everything it touches a little more elegant, and gives dimension to single note dishes.

Ingredients:

• 16 oz, fluid good balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 c sugar
• salt

Directions:

1. Pour balsamic vinegar into a heavy pan.
2. Add regular granulated sugar.
3. Add a couple pinches of salt.
4. Stir to combine.
5. Place over medium heat.
6. Once the balsamic vinegar comes to a boil, stir again, and casually watch it. You don’t have to babysit the pot, but stick around so you don’t forget about it.
7. When the balsamic glaze is thick and syrupy and has reduced by half (about 20 to 30 minutes), remove the pot from the burner and allow it to cool.
8. Store your balsamic glaze in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
