right?
I could show you a photo of the sauce when done, but it's a dark looking sauce because
of the Balsamic Vinegar....still wanna see it? ok
Just a plain looking dark sauce....
But the taste of this when poured over a steak is just heavenly.....the shallots, the butter, the tang of the balsamic slightly offset by the sugar.....
Well there's only one way to portray it, this was dinner last night.
I rest my case. Do try it, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

This sauce is sooooo good w/steak (I used sirloin), my goodness it melts in your mouth!! A great sauce esp. if you like balsamic vinegar...Thx.
Mal,
I suspect it's my fault, not yours. From your description it sounds like the heat was a bit high, but the main culprit was not enough Balsamic liquid. I tend to free hand when I cook and not measure so when I wrote up the recipe I think I short changed the amount of Balsamic. I've remade the sauce, measured exactly, and revised accordingly.
If you try it again, I bet it comes out perfectly and you will enjoy it.
Thanks for the comment and I'm sorry it didn't work out the first time.
It's worth making again though, it's that good, I promise.
Easy ratios to scale to size. Delicious result. Could be used on so many things: steak, roasted parsnips, fresh tomato & mozzarella salad, etc. I used it on a lovely ribeye, but found myself dipping the sides in the sauce. Thanks!
Thanks for the great recipe!
I love this sauce, and in fact, it was better than the steak it was on...which means that I should probably buy better steaks.
Grazie mille
Ha ha, great comment on the steak. Love it.

Made this for bone in pork chops tonight. Oh baby was it good! Thank you so much. It took about 15 - 20 mins to simmer down to reduction, and was well worth it. -Chris P.
