Ingredients

• 1 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey. Stir until the honey dissolves completely.

Step 2

Add olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, and Dijon mustard to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.

Step 3

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, and continue to heat until it starts to simmer.

Step 4

Lower the heat to medium-low and allow the mixture to cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly into a glaze-like consistency.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the glaze cool slightly. It will continue to thicken as it cools.

Step 6

Use the glaze immediately to baste meats, vegetables, or seafood while grilling, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
