Suggestions needed

My main aquistion at the craft fair today was a bottle of Balsamic Vinegar with Maple Syrup. Really yummy stuff, but other than salad dressing, I'm not sure what I can do with it.


Anybody have any suggestions?

Salmon, huh... that sounds like it could be tasty.

I tried a little bit on some strawberries this evening. Really good! Although, I should have put a little more effort into cutting off the over-ripe parts of the berries.

Try it as a maranade on some chicken or pork.

[jennythe-reader.livejournal.com]

It might be a little strong for chicken, but pork is a good idea.

Ice cream.

Ice cream?

As a topping?

[doobie.livejournal.com]

yup. I had an ex who was fanatic about having vanilla ice cream with balsamic vinegar. The maple syrup would add a very good touch to it.

[jennythe-reader.livejournal.com]

Huh. I'll give it a try.

I think she used to use sliced strawberries with it... There were some links when I did a search for 'balsamic vinegar ice cream'

Just what I was going to reply! I adore balsamic vinegar on vanilla ice cream. I know it sounds yucky, but everyone I've persuaded to try it has ended up liking it.

I did try it, with Ben and Jerry's vanilla ice cream. It was quite good. Sort of sweet'n'sour tasting.
