Cooking With Dark Balsamic

Pick One for the Way You Eat

Traditional Dark Balsamic Vinegar works on salads, in marinades and as a finishing drizzle. Mission Fig Dark Balsamic Vinegar is made for cheese boards. Vermont Maple Dark Balsamic Vinegar is a natural match for squash and sweet potatoes.

Neapolitan Herb is savory and herby. Strawberry, Black Cherry and Dark Chocolate move easily from salad to dessert.

Finish With a Drizzle

Add dark balsamic at the end so its flavor stands out. Spoon it over roasted carrots, brush it on grilled chicken or set out a small dish next to the cheese.

Dark balsamic will darken pale sauces, so reach for a white balsamic when color matters.

Pair dark balsamic with a robust EVOO over a salad with nuts and cheese, or with Garlic oil for a quick marinade.
