Barrel-aged Traditional Balsamic from Modena, Italy, has a storied history rooted in ancient traditions, evolving from an ancient Roman preservative to a prized gourmet condiment. Its complex flavor is crafted through a meticulous process that reduces the size of the wooden barrels as it ages.
Savory pairings:
- Cheese: Drizzle over aged cheeses like Parmigiano Reggiano, Grana Padano, or Pecorino Romano. It also pairs well with soft, creamy cheeses such as fresh mozzarella, burrata, goat cheese, and Gorgonzola.
- Meats: A classic finisher for grilled or roasted meats, including beef, chicken, pork tenderloin, and duck breast. It is also delicious with cured meats like prosciutto.
- Fish and Seafood: A few drops drizzled over grilled salmon or bass adds a bright, tangy counterpoint.
- Risotto: Stir a few drops into risotto at the very end of cooking to add complexity and aroma.
- Vegetables: Toss with roasted vegetables such as Brussels sprouts, potatoes, bell peppers, or asparagus. Its sweetness caramelizes the vegetables and brings out their natural flavor.
