Essential in your kitchen: Ball-samico

One of the basic ingredients in my kitchen is vinegar. Balsamic vinegar to be precise. I use the Italian variant not only over my plate of arugula, but also in my homemade tomato sauce and in the summer over my fresh strawberries, the deep red vinegar is indispensable. But now there is something new: balsamic to grate. Yes, you read that right. From now on, you will not only use a piece of parmesan on the grater, but also decorate your salad with it. You can buy the Ball-samico from our friends at Oil & Vinegar. The producer of the new gimmick, a company from Modena, mentions several advantages of the solid form of vinegar. For example, the texture gives you a different mouthfeel, it doesn’t sink to the bottom of your salad bowl, it keeps your salad nice and fresh and crispy, and it gives your dish that special touch. And of course, you can just toss it in your bag. Ideal for your lunch box or in a few weeks in the picnic basket. The Ball-samico was awarded the most innovative product in New York last year. So better hurry to Oil & Vinegar now. No talking, just grating…
