Instructions

Step 1

Cook the balsamic vinegar (alone or with the other ingredients) in a small saucepan over medium heat until it has reduced by half (it takes about 30 minutes for 2 cups of vinegar to reduce to 1 Bowl). It can be cooked to this point for a concentrated but still runny balsamic reduction. Cook until reduced to 12 cup for a thicker sauce (frosting type) (or a quarter of the original volume).

Step 2

When the balsamic vinegar reduction has reached the desired thickness and concentration, remove from heat and set aside to cool. If I add garlic or herb sprigs, they can be removed at that time. Put the reduction or balsamic sauce in a covered container or bottle and store it for later use.
