Preparing the Reduction

Ingredients

  • 1 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tbsp agave
  • 1/2 tsp lacuma powder, optional
To start, combine the vinegar, sweetener, and lacuma powder in small sauce pan. Place over medium heat and, whisking constantly, bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to maintain a low simmer and continue to cook, at a low simmer, for about 7 to 10 minutes, or until reduced by almost half (about 1/2 cup) or until it nicely coats the back of a spoon. Once done, remove from the heat. Transfer to the refrigerator and allow to chill. Use, chilled or at room temperature, as a sweet acidic garnish or finishing sauce to a variety of desserts.
