Mazzetti Classic Balsamic Glaze 215ml

Balsamic Glaze

Mazzetti Classic Balsamic Glaze 215ml is a rich, glossy balsamic glaze made for drizzling and finishing dishes with the distinctive sweet and tangy character of balsamic vinegar. Its thick, syrupy consistency means it sits beautifully on the plate rather than running like a traditional vinegar, making it just as useful for presentation as it is for adding flavour.

Ready to use straight from the bottle, this Italian balsamic glaze works particularly well with salads, roasted vegetables, grilled meats, cheese and antipasti. Try a generous drizzle over tomatoes and mozzarella, finish a bowl of burrata, or use it to add a sweet-sharp contrast to strawberries and other fresh fruit.

It is also a handy ingredient for everyday cooking. A little balsamic glaze can bring sweetness and acidity to marinades, sauces and roasted vegetables, while its thicker texture makes it ideal for finishing pizza, bruschetta and sharing boards just before serving.

What is the difference between balsamic glaze and balsamic vinegar?

Balsamic glaze has a thicker, more concentrated consistency than standard balsamic vinegar. This makes it particularly useful as a finishing condiment because it can be drizzled neatly over food rather than quickly dispersing across the plate.

Can balsamic glaze be used for decorating plates?

Yes. Its syrupy texture makes balsamic glaze particularly useful for restaurant-style plating. It can be applied in dots, lines and sweeping drizzles around salads, starters, cheese dishes and desserts.

Does balsamic glaze work with sweet dishes?

Yes. The combination of sweetness and acidity pairs particularly well with naturally sweet ingredients. Strawberries, figs, peaches and vanilla-based desserts are good starting points, particularly when paired with creamy ingredients such as mascarpone, panna cotta or ice cream.

Ingredients:

Balsamic Vinegar of Modena I.G.P 60% (wine vinegar, cooked grape must, concentrated grape must), cooked grape must, modified corn starch. Contains SULPHITES.
