Not very appealing to the eye. Tasted much to strong of the balsamic vinegar as the recipe is. I will not make it again.

First time making dipping oil, yummy!! The only modification I made is that I used Tarragon vinegar instead of balsamic, I was out.

followed the recipe exactly and this was great!! the vinegar gives it just the right amount of zing. even the kids loved it. served with ciabatta bread. update: made this again with 1/2 t crushed red pepper flakes, we really love this.

We really liked this with dinner the other night with recipe #255672. A great warm weather dinner that doesn't require much cooking at all. Next time I will probably cut down on the balsamic a bit, it was alittle too much for our tastes.

This is perfect! Just what I have been looking for.<br/><br/>We like to have our own individual dish of dip to ourselves, not a communal bowl.
