Calories 42 kcal

Ingredients

2 cups good quality balsamic vinegar
½ cup brown sugar (optional)

Instructions

Heat balsamic vinegar in a small pot or saucepan over medium heat.
If adding sugar, combine both into the pot and heat together.
Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to medium-low heat and let simmer, stirring occasionally, until the vinegar thickens and is reduced by half (about 20 minutes*). It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Remove from heat and allow to cool completely before serving (about 15 minutes).
*If simmering with sugar, it will take about 8-10 minutes to reduce.
Hack: Store your balsamic glaze in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks
