Olivier balsamic vinegar is divine. I know many people will say it’s a little pricey, but it lasts for such a long time and it’s not as expensive as some other vinegars (especially those aged as long as this one). I picked up the 25 year barrel aged vinegar over at Williams-Sonoma and I have been hooked ever since. This vinegar is the way balsamic was meant to be. It’s 100% vinegar, nothing else, like some of the cheaper vinegars you can pick up elsewhere. This is the real deal, straight from Italy.
I absolutely love it as a dipping sauce with olive oil for bread. I use it in everything. It makes a real delicious, thick, and rich vinaigrette for greens. It’s also great for drizzling over your favorite Italian dishes.
