How to Make Balsamic Herb Grilling Glaze

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup dry red wine, 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and half of your fresh herbs (see ingredient list for suggestions).
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze slightly thickens.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the remaining half of the fresh herbs.
  5. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper to taste. Consider adding a pinch of salt if desired.
  6. Allow the glaze to cool completely to room temperature before using. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  7. When grilling, brush the glaze generously onto your meat, fish, or vegetables during the last 5-7 minutes of cooking, or use as a marinade for at least 30 minutes prior to grilling.
