Balsamic vinegar, a staple of Italian cuisine, is beloved for its rich and complex flavors that are crafted through a meticulous aging process. Traditionally, high-quality vinegar is used in raw applications to fully appreciate its depth - however, its versatility extends far beyond salads and marinades, lending itself to creative culinary uses, such as these Balsamic Candied Nuts. Coating almonds and walnuts in a simple mixture of egg whites, honey, salt and Italian balsamic vinegar and baking them to crispy perfection is your ticket to sophisticated snacking. The balsamic flavor is mild, but caramelizes into a rich, toasty taste that pairs perfectly with an aperitivo.
