Balsamic Vinegar-love it or hate it?

[Mandabella]

I love it with fresh tomatoes, fresh basil, fresh mozzarella and extra virgin olive oil. Mmmm

 

[GraysMom]

Love it by itself on salads. Usually I mix in just a touch of sugar to satisfy my sweet tooth .

 

[DisMN]

I love it. It goes with so much. Blondie, you have to try it splashed on sweet strawberries, so yummy.

Darn you, ya stole my recipe! Although I add a drop or two of vanilla extract to the balsamic and extra extra yum!!!

Yep, I like balsamic vinegar, yes I do!

 

[Fan2CSkr]

I love it! YUM
Try a splash on cantaloupe wrapped in prosciutto. For that matter I like it on most anything.

One of my favorites too! My basil is going down for the count. Sad!

The other day Rachael Ray made a salad dressing of strawberry preserves and balsamic vinegar. She then cut up some strawberries really thin and put them on chopped romaine hearts. It looked so good!

*I'm hungry*

I am big fan of vinegar in general. So yes, I like it.

 

[Laugh O. Grams]

Love it, in moderation...but too much of it can definitely be a bad thing!

I can take it or leave it. I don't hate it, but I don't seek it out either...

Many years ago when it first became "big" I asked for a bottle from William sonoma for Christmas. This was when The Frugal Gourmet was big and he was always raving about how great it was. I wasn't impressed. I now keep a cheapie bottle from the grocery store in the house but I don't use it much.

As long as I take my daily Pepcid, I'm okay. Otherwise, I'll burp the flavor all day long!

I had to come back to this thread because I previously posted that I hated it. But I tried it again last night and it was great!! For some reason I keep thinking about it and can't wait to go home to have some more. What is it about this stuff??

 

[1Prince2Princesses]

Love it. I like to marinade chicken in it, then grill it. Eat it on a big salad... yum.

 

[floridafam]

Yum!

 

[Heidict]

I love it. Along with just about any other vinegar. I love to cook my chicken and green beans with apple cider vinegar.

If it makes you pucker, then it's good stuff!!

 

[piglet too]

I tend to like it as a salad dressing, my favorite being from Panera Bread.

My DD4 loves it too. But then, she loves it when my DH makes a vinegar (any type) and oil dressing and will drink what is left after she eats her salad. This girl actually asks for salad (and cottage cheese, blech) for lunch on most days.

Tried it and didn't like it. Funny thing is my last name is very close to that spelling, so I use "balsamic"" to help people pronounce my last name (which is Balsamo)

Love it - especially from Cheesecake Factory!
