Balsamic vinegar has a great reputation as a base for salad dressings. But if you’ve looked around your grocery story lately, you may have noticed more and more varieties of flavor-infused Balsamic vinegars. These vinegars offer a whole new range of possibilities in your kitchen by bringing in new and potent flavors, combined with the same sweet and savory base flavor of the vinegar (not to mention its health benefits), making them well worth considering as an addition to your everyday cooking.
How Flavor-Infused Balsamic Vinegar is Made
A true, quality infused Balsamic vinegar starts with real Balsamic vinegar aged traditionally in wooden barrels made of cherry, oak, or chestnut.
The supplier will then use this aged Balsamic vinegar as a base in which to infuse fruitsor other complimentary flavors, imparting the unique flavor of these ingredients and blending it with the Balsamic vinegar’s own tart, complex flavor.
The Health Benefits ofUsing Flavored Balsamic Vinegar
If you’re aiming for a healthier diet, then infused Balsamic vinegar can be a great way to add flavor to your dishes. A tablespoon of vinegar has only 10 to 15 calories. Blended Balsamic vinegar with just a bit of olive oil as a base for a homemade salad dressing can save hundreds of calories over store-bought dressings.
And Balsamic vinegar is sodium-free, making it a great choice for anyone with high blood pressure. Balsamic vinegar is also known to help stabilize and even lower blood sugar for hours after eating, making it invaluable for individuals with Type 2 diabetes.
And all of this while adding the great flavor of both the vinegar and the infused ingredients. It seems an easy choice to add infused Balsamic vinegar to your diet. So, what are some of the ways you can do that?
