Slippery, sloped, and in the case of carrots, roasted with olive oil and some kind of herb (dill, rosemary, thyme, or basil. The "or" is important here), perhaps some onion and garlic. Or on top of salad with balsamic vinaigrette.
The other comment on gradients is a good thought too.
- denton-scratch 4y agoUnless you're paying EU100 per litre, your "balsamic vinaigrette" isn't made with proper balsamic vinegar. It's made from regular vinegar mixed with colouring agents, flavouring agents and preservatives. Proper balsamic vinegar is made using a solera system, and takes a number of years. I doubt any restaurant chef would use real balsamic vinegar to make a "balsamic vinaigrette"; the real thing is for sipping.
- tomrod 4y agoNeat to learn. I'm almost certainly using a knockoff
- denton-scratch 4y agoI'm not really being fair. It's just that the standards are terribly confusing. There are two main standards; one is ultra-strict, and the other is so relaxed as to be meaningless. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balsamic_vinegar_of_Modena https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balsamic_vinegar_of_Modena Well, that's how I see it. I didn't mean that the lower-grade stuff is 'knock-off'; I've never so much as seen a bottle of the 'proper' stuff, except in photos. But I'm sure I wouldn't take snifters of normal deli balsamic vinegar.
- tomrod 4y agoI do love the standard stuff one finds in the deli :)
