How To Make Balsamic Glaze

Step 1

Heat the balsamic in a small saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

When heated and starting to simmer, add the sugar and salt to the balsamic. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Cook the balsamic mixture, stirring occasionally, at a simmer until reduced by half, approximately 15 minutes. It will be thicker than it was before, but not sticky thick until it cools down some. It should coat the back of the spoon.

Step 4

Let the balsamic glaze cool to room temperature and then chill. It will thicken up more when cool. If yours is still not thick, you can throw it back in a pan to continue cooking. Store in a glass jar or container in the refrigerator.
