How To Make Fig Balsamic Vinegar

By Lessie Kaufman


Plenty of households would mix variety of condiments to the food that they would eat. Such condiments will sometimes serve as secret ingredients which add a good taste on their food. One can purchase various condiments in the stores. A number of these things could be created in our homes.

As you read the article, you will have knowledge in making a particular condiment. This is called fig balsamic vinegar. You must first gather all ingredients you needed for this. It is easy to make this one because you just need one to two cups of figs which are fresh and quart of the aceto balsamico.

When you wanted it to have that sweet taste, you could also add a quarter of a cup of sugar. You could increase or lessen the amount of sugar that you would be adding to it. This step is optional and would just depend on you if it would be fit to your tastes. You may not place this as some of the fruit that you would buy would already have the sweetness that would be fit to the taste that you have.

After you have all of those things, you may now start with it. Prepare a large saucepan. Place all of those things in the pan and then bring it to a simmer. Stir it from time to time over low heat. Do that for about ten minutes so that it would be cooked. When ten minutes is up, cover the pan. Wait for about a few more minutes so that it would completely cool down before you start on the next one.

Because it has high amounts, it is good for you to start to work in batches. A food processor is needed in this step. When you have none of that, you could borrow it from friends or from neighbors. Be certain that you will ask how it will function. Pour that mixture in the processor. Pour enough amount so this will not overflow. You need to puree that until it becomes smooth enough.

After you are done with it, get a fine sieve including a large bowl. Those are needed for straining that puree. It will be necessary to strain that so the solids that are left in the mixture are removed from it.

Line the sieve with cloth or filter and place this over the bowl. It is better for you to ask for help on this. You may have a hard time on pouring it. Pour that slowly and avoid pressing the solids in it. You have to cover that with a plastic wrap and allow it to be strained while in the refrigerator overnight.

Remove this from that bowl. Ensure that all the solid ones left in there have been discarded. It could then be poured to a bottle or jar which you could reseal. You are now finished creating it already.

This can be refrigerated for one month. This can be used in various purposes particularly on cooking. This would surely add flavor on the dishes that you would make.
