Balsamic vinegar

Those sleazy wops have been ripping us off for years.

Next time you are in your pantry, have a look at the ingredients on your balsamic vinegar.

Unless you have bought an expensive bottle, the last ingredient will be 'caramel'.

What they do is put normal vinegar in a bottle and then add caramel and flavour to make it look and smell like balsamic vinegar.

The real stuff is aged like wine and doesn't need any of that caramel crap in it.

The things you find out from reading recipe books.
