Balsamic Vinegar Uses

Balsamic vinegar uses can vary. With its irresistible scent and its black or dark brown color, balsamic vinegar is a condiment with unique characteristics born in Italy, produced for centuries in particular in the Modena and Reggio Emilia vinegar factories. Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) is made with cooked grape must and aged for years, as it has a slower acetification process than the Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI (protected geographical indication) which derives from grape must and wine vinegar matured for 2 months.
