If you ever wondered what to do with one of those big Costco/Sam’s Club bottles here’s the trick. This is a simple way to “pump up” store-bought Balsamic Vinegar to create something closer to the real aged balsamic vinegar. You’ll end up with a a thick, syrupy sauce that’s excellent with vegetables, salads and even ice-cream.
Ingredients
1 Cup Store Bought Balsamic Vinegar
¼ Cup brown sugar
Directions
Bring the vinegar to a boil in a sauce pan, reducing it half. Remove from heat and whisk in the sugar being careful as it may foam up (hence the reason for removing it from direct heat). Return to the stove-top and boil for another couple of minutes until the sugar dissolves.
Yields: About 1/2 Cup
Time to make: 20 min
