When you reduce balsamic vinegar, you’re actually evaporating the water and concentrating the sugars. So you lose the vinegar taste almost entirely. A really good aged balsamic, like 20 years+ only makes it like how grape juice and sugar turn to wine, but without the taste of alcohol. It gets real thick, almost like syrup. I have drizzled it over ice cream and given it to kids without mentioning vinegar and they only beg for more. My kid feens for it, so he gets a bottle once a year or so.
I use balsamic vinegar to make vinagarettes but I'm not spending anywhere nearly a hundred. If I spent that much I would definitely want the alcohol.
You can do the same with the cheap stuff. I just like getting them from the wineries for the variety.
Man ... this is going to be interesting times. We already have 6 in. on the ground with another 12 on the way. Temp is 6F .. headed to 0F. (not as cold as you guys, but that's damn cold for a bunch of toothless, barefoot, illiterate Arkansans) Noticed this morning the electricity cutting out every 15 min or so. Not supposed to let up until Friday. Looking like a good run in 2024 for the Abominable Snow Man.
10,000 without power in Baton Rouge and they are closing lots of roads. My heater runs on electricity. Yesterday I bought everything I thought I needed to be able to stay inside for a few days. Now I'm wondering if I need to replace the antifreeze in my truck. It's been a couple of years
Mom in Plano said they are having rolling blackouts. She's been out of power for 14 hours because the fricken Windmills froze up and shorted the system. Thank you Democrats and all the other stupid shits who embrace this clean energy grid b.s.
if your battery and cables are good, your truck'll be ok, drive it a little to warm it up,.. it's when it's been below freezing for a couple days, then turns cold to zero, that's when things start going bad
