OT - Recipes which use olive oil or balsamic vinegar?
Here's two of my favorite recipes using balsamic vinegar:
Pork Roast Put a pork roast in crock pot. Size of pork roast, size of crock pot - whatever you have! Mix together: 2 parts balsamic vinegar to 1 part honey & 1 part brown sugar. Pour over pork roast and cook until done. My family loves pork roast fixed this way. __________________________________________________ __ Penne with Roasted Asparagus and Balsamic Butter Simmering the balsamic vinegar both mellows and thickens it. When tossed with the hot pasta and the butter, it forms a smooth, uniquely flavored sauce. 1 lb. asparagus 1 Tbsp olive oil 2 tsp salt - I usually never use as much salt as the recipe calls for 1/2 tsp black pepper 1/2 C plus 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar 1/2 tsp brown sugar 1 lb. penne 2 Tbsp butter, cut into pieces 1/3 C grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving 1. Heat the oven to 400°. Snap the tough ends off the asparagus and discard them. Cut the spears into 1” pieces. Put the asparagus on a baking sheet and toss with the olive oil and 1/4 tsp each of sale and pepper. Roast until tender, about 10 minutes 2. Meanwhile, put the vinegar in a small saucepan and simmer until 3 Tbsp remain. Stir in the brown sugar and the remaining 1/4 tsp pepper. Remove from heat. 3. Cook the penne in a large pot of boiling, salted water until just done, about 13 minutes. Drain the pasta and toss with the butter, vinegar, asparagus, Parmesan, and the remaining 1 3/4 tsp salt. Serve with additional Parmesan. Optional: Add diced, cooked chicken breast when tossing the rest of the ingredients with the penne. Variations: Cut 1 lb. of broccoli into small spears for roasting. Toss with 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper. Roast for about 15 minutes. Continue with step 2. Toss 1/3 C of toasted pine nuts, hazelnuts, or walnuts at the end with either asparagus or broccoli.

Clearly I'm not using it as fast as I am receiving it. Do any of you have great recipes for using these ingredients? Here's an odd one. I'm not sure I quite believe it. http://tvnz.co.nz/masterchef-new-zea...e-tart-4719669 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- e m a i l : j a c k @ c a m p i n . m e . u k Jack Campin, 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU, Scotland mobile 07800 739 557 http://www.campin.me.uk Twitter: JackCampin |

Hello folks, I received olive oil for Christmas - went to the cupboard and I already have 3 bottles of it! Plus 2 bottles of balsamic vinegar. Clearly I'm not using it as fast as I am receiving it. Do any of you have great recipes for using these ingredients? I would like to try them out. Thanks, -- Jo in Scotland Balsamic chicken uses both :-) Heat olive oil in a skillet, add thawed chicken breasts and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Once chicken is cooked through, place on a plate to keep warm and saute onions in the remaining vinegar and oil |
