Balsamic vinegar reduction is a thick glaze with a sweet-and-sour taste that goes perfectly with both savory and sweet dishes. Preparing it is very easy, it takes just about 15 minutes: bring the balsamic vinegar to boiling point in a pan (on a low heat, to prevent it from burning), add sugar or honey and let the liquid evaporate until you get a glaze. Before using it, filter it and let it cool.
If you want to obtain a more neutral flavor, you can also use starch instead of sugar, but you can also enrich it with spices, such as cinnamon. It's perfect to dress salads, garnish meat, cheese, risotto, but also fruit and desserts, such as panna cotta. Use it as you can see in the video to serve a surprising masterpiece on a plate.
