one of my favorite things about this 'Price Points' series is that it reveals a lot of the magic of everyday life. as an average Joe, i miss a lot of magic in my life. i don't understand the artistry, craftsmanship and effort going into my favorite cheese, bread, knife, vinegar, etc. after these videos, i realize i should appreciate these little things more, and when you appreciate the little things more, life gets so much better :)

I was fortunate enough to receive a bottle of very high end balsamic vinegar as a gift. It was one of the best things I have ever tasted. So uniquely different from your average balsamic.

@lauriedepaurie 5 лет назад

One of my favorote vinegars to apply in cooking is a white wine - taragon vinegar. An italian 'condimento' which is a white-wine equivalent of a cheap balsamic, with a lot of taragon pushed into the bottle. Adds complexity, a touch of sweetness and rounds out the unpleasant acidity. It's great for mayonnaise/hollandaise/dressings and simple pickling. Plus, a 'gastrique' (sugar and vinegar of some sort, reduced to a syrup) is a classic French technique to add complexity to any sauce/marinade. I make mine with (cheap) balsamic, honey and a small swig of red wine.

Everyone talking about how the "editing mistake" shows off that they know the prices beforehand.... it doesn't. Look at the little bowls- they edited that part *from* a later point when the price tags were shown and the bowls had had vinegar put in them. This really is just an editing mistake, nothing more (not saying they don't know prices beforehand, maybe they do- but this does not prove that).

Part of Balsamic vinegar, traditionally it is fermented directly to vinegar, not juice/must to wine then vinegar. This direct to vinegar process uses different yeasts and produces a smoother product. With each batch of vinegar, some old is blended with the new. A “24 year” vinegar is dating the youngest batch, and may include vinegar which is decades older.
