Balsamic Vinegar Reduction

In a heavy pot over medium heat combine:

• Balsamic vinegar
• Sugar: cane sugar, raw sugar, agave syrup, honey, your choice
• Some chefs use as much as a 2:1 ratio- vinegar to sugar.
• Start off with a little at a time and add the sweet element until it tastes good to you.
• Add a little kosher salt to taste.
• Simmer, stirring occasionally, until it cools down to a consistency that you like. The longer you cook, the thicker.
• Let cool and funnel into a bottle. Store at room temperature.
