      If you like the flavor of balsamic vinegar, you are going to love it more when you make this sauce. When I reduced the Balsamic vinegar to a syrup was a big surprise for me, the change on the flavor was something I don't expected. This tasty and incredibly easy to make sauce, have many uses in cooking. Try it over your favorite salads, appetizers, fruits, ice cream, desserts, you name it. Can you imagine you can make something that good with only one ingredient. Ingredient: 1 cup of good quality balsamic vinegar  In small sauce pan at medium low heat add the balsamic vinegar and simmer until reduced to 1/4 of a cup.  It will look like a syrup and will take about 45 minutes. Transfer to small bowl and set aside until needed.  Let me know  in a comment what do you think about the flavor.
