Balsamic Reduction at Home
You can drop upwards of $40 on a bottle of balsamic reduction, or, buy a cheap bottle of balsamic and make your own, with better flavor. Trust me, make your own.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle Balsamic Vinegar (get a good sized bottle, not the smallest that's on the shelf)
- 1 Your favorite frying pan
- 1 Funnel (if you have a steady hand, you can skip this part)
- 1 Squeeze bottle or salad dressing bottle (for storage)
Instructions
- Put your frying pan on a burner turned to medium low heat, letting the pan warm.
- Dump the entire bottle of balsamic into the pan.
- Cook low and slow until the balsamic has reduced down to AT LEAST half of it's original volume, and coats the back of a spoon.
- Let it cool completely, transfer to whatever bottle you're using for storage, and put in the fridge until you're ready to use it.
