Bourbon Balsamic Syrup

Directions

1. 1
   Put the balsamic vinegar and bourbon in a small nonreactive pan over medium-high heat.
2. 2
   Bring to a boil, then immediately lower the heat so the mixture bubbles gently.
3. 3
   Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces to about 1/2 cup, 15 to 20 minutes; it should coat the back of a spoon and will thicken a little more as it cools.
4. 4
   Salt to taste, and serve warm or at room temperature.
