Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup honey
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, balsamic vinegar, and honey ensuring all ingredients are evenly mixed.
- Simmer the mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Reduce and thicken: Lower the heat and let the glaze simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until it thickens to a syrupy consistency, stirring intermittently.
- Strain the glaze: Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove raspberry seeds, ensuring a smooth glaze.
- Cool before use: Allow the glaze to cool completely before serving or storing for later use.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe raspberries for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- Adjust honey quantity based on your preferred sweetness level.
- The glaze will thicken further as it cools; if too thick, thin with a splash of water or balsamic vinegar.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Great as a topping for grilled chicken, pork, salads, or desserts like cheesecake or ice cream.
