Tavern Direct Review and Giveaway
Tavern Direct is a company that sells many different oils, vinegars, marinades, grilling sauces, etc. I was very lucky to get to review four of their balsamic vinegars. Since middle school, I have been a huge fan of balsamic vinegar and use it on many of my salads. I had never tried a flavored kind until now.
I opened up the Autumn Fig the other night and gave it a try drizzled over some green beans. The vinegar was much thicker and more syrupy than other vinegars. It was very tasty and slightly sweet. My husband and I both enjoyed it a lot. There is 40 calories per serving which is quite a bit higher than other balsamics but not too bad since you can use less due to the thicker consistency. I can't wait to try the other flavors of vinegar! I'm sure that they will be great.

ReplyDeleteI watched their YouTube video called Summer Strawberry Marinated Grilled Chicken. I learned that you can use the balsamic vinegar as a marinade for the chicken. Then, chill the chicken and serve on a salad with fresh strawberries.
