Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey over medium heat. (3-5 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally until small bubbles begin to form around the edges.

03

Step
1 mins

Stir in the crushed garlic, chopped rosemary, and garlic salt. Ensure everything is well combined.

04

Step
40 mins

Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer, stirring every few minutes to prevent scorching, until the glaze thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon. This process can take anywhere from 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the heat and the pan used.

05

Step
5 mins

Once the glaze has reached the desired consistency, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool slightly. The glaze will continue to thicken as it cools.

06

Step
2 mins

Strain the glaze through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the garlic and rosemary, resulting in a silky-smooth finish.

07

Step
1 mins

Transfer the glaze to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator. It will keep for several weeks.

Use a good-quality balsamic vinegar for the best flavor.
Adjust the amount of honey to your liking, depending on the sweetness you prefer.
For a richer flavor, try using aged balsamic vinegar.
The glaze can also be used as a marinade for meats before grilling or roasting.
Experiment with adding other herbs and spices, such as thyme, oregano, or red pepper flakes, to customize the flavor.
