Recipes — smoked balsamic vinegar

For a deceptively easy recipe that takes full advantage of the rich flavors of Italian cooking, you have to try this vegan Grilled Mushroom Bruschetta with Smoked Balsamic. It works as a colorful app, hearty side or light entrée. We coated the mushrooms in Garlic Olive Oil before grilling and drizzled Smoked Balsamic Vinegar over the finished product for a double-dose of genuine flavor. It’s fresh, fast, healthy and absolutely delicious!

The wonderful thing about making homemade barbecue sauce is that you know all the ingredients going in there – pure goodness! Plus, it’s fun to throw your chef hat in KC’s famous ring of barbecue! We’re using our Smoked Balsamic Vinegar in this Smoked BBQ Sauce which provides the perfect sweetness and smokiness. Feel free to bring the heat with crushed red pepper flakes or just a pinch of cayenne pepper.

In honor of National Bourbon Day and Father’s Day, we made a Smoked Manhattan for the bourbon-lovin’ dads (and everyone else!). The key to this special twist is a touch of Smoked Balsamic in the drink and brushed on the rim. The result? A classic with a touch of sweetness, just like dad. Cheers!

 It’s Grilling Season! And we’ve created the perfect recipe to kick off our June pairing of Garlic Olive Oil and Smoked Balsamic Vinegar. These glazed pork chops feature our Balsamic Marinade that can actually be used on everything from seafood and steak to chicken and veggies. It’s delicious in all its simplicity, but can be customized with additional herbs, spices and other flavorful ingredients to offer taste buds a unique experience every time! 

Some gatherings are made for conversation and grazing. For these moments, we fill our wooden boards with bread, crackers and this simmered mixture of cherry tomatoes, Olive Tree Smoked Balsamic Vinegar  and Rosemary Olive Oil, garlic and fresh rosemary to make a  Warm Tomato & Herb Topping.
