Ingredients

• 1 cup Fresh raspberries
• 1 cup Balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
• 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

Place a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add 1 cup of fresh raspberries, 1 cup of balsamic vinegar, and 2 tablespoons of honey (or maple syrup) to the saucepan.

Step 3

Stir the ingredients together gently to combine.

Step 4

Bring the mixture to a simmer. Lower the heat to medium-low and allow it to cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking or burning. The mixture should reduce by about half and thicken to a syrup-like consistency.

Step 5

If you prefer a smoother texture, strain the reduction through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the raspberry seeds.

Step 6

Season with a pinch of salt and stir to incorporate.

Step 7

Allow the balsamic reduction to cool slightly before serving. It will thicken further as it cools.

Step 8

Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently if it becomes too thick.
