Balsamic Glaze

Well I did it again, I managed to fry another graphics card in my computer!! I swear PicMonkey is the culprit, but Alex can’t be sure if it is or isn’t….so he replaced the card and we will see how long this one lasts, lol

Soooo, I made Balsamic Glaze a couple of weeks ago, and now I can finally tell you about it…..

This image is not doing this yummy Balsamic Glaze justice! My version is not a traditional balsamic reduction, this is a glaze with red wine and sugar…Yum!!

Thick, gooey Balsamic Glaze drizzled over pizza, meat, asparagus, or even ice cream adds just the right touch of tart and sweet! Pizza you say? Why yes, I drizzled this delicious glaze over my Grilled Peach and Arugula Pizza {recipe coming Monday}…..

It is also my favorite way to top off Greek Burgers…..

and drizzle over Tuscan Stuffed Pork Loin…..

I think Ree Drummond is the one that pours it over her ice cream, I haven’t tried that one yet, lol

This Balsamic Glaze is really simple to prepare, but it will take a bit of time to reduce…and the smell of simmering vinegar may knock you off your feet. 😉

This is so easy, I didn’t even take any photos…shocking, I know. 😉

Bring vinegar and wine to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until reduced by half. {30 minutes or so}

Stir in the brown sugar, cook glaze at a rapid simmer until reduced by half.

Allow to cool before pouring into a glass jar. {We don’t want condensation diluting the glaze}

Glaze will last for months in the refrigerator. Vinegar kills bacteria, so it’s lasts a long time…just like ketchup…but not like graphic cards!! 😉

Enjoy!!
