8 servings
- 1 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
Chef's tipUse the same amount; honey is a little thicker and slightly sweeter. - ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ⅛ tsp fine sea salt
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Combine the balsamic vinegar and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring once to combine.

Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the glaze has reduced by about half and coats the back of a spoon with a thick, syrupy consistency, 14–16 minutes. Watch closely in the final 2–3 minutes — the sugars can scorch quickly once the liquid thickens.
