Located in: Oil/Vinegar, Balsamic Vinegar

Blaze, the first commercially available Balsamic Glaze, is ideal for decorating and flavoring grilled meats, risotto, or even desserts. While professional chefs have always used a balsamic glaze to finish their plates, few amateur cooks have the time or patience to prepare it at home. The Acetum Company, located in the Modena province, has created this unique glaze of premium balsamic vinegar which requires no further reduction. It can be added at the end of the cooking process because it does not need to be heated further. Blaze Balsamic Glaze will decorate and garnish your most refined dishes.

Blaze is available in Original and other flavors specially designed to enhance the following foods: Pizza, Dessert, and Fish. Varieties sold separately.

Comments about Blaze Balsamic Glaze:

I use it in salads mostly and on some fruit. I would like it to be sweeter. I've had sweeter from Italy but it's impossible to get over here in the states. Whenever I am in Modena, I pick up quite a few bottles. Can you get me a sweeter glaze than the one I ordered?

Thanks

I absolutely love balsalmic vinegar. I have tried one other glaze which was sweeter and less acidic, more so for using on desserts. Blaze however is still phenomenal tasting but I use it more for savory foods. Absolutely wonderful on grilled meats and fish.

This is inexpensive enough to surprise your foodie friends with a bottle. I make a slightly wilted Romaine salad with shredded cheese added after removing from heat, then circle it with Blaze, and voila! Simple, elegant, just as you imagine. Blaze is the difference in so many dishes.

This takes Balsamic Vinegar to the next level. Exceptional flavor with a marvelous consistency. I have tried this on just about everything and I have yet to be disappointed.
