Can I say, OMG! This is a wonderful little sauce. The balsamic vinegar at the end just takes this recipe over the edge. Followed directions exactly and used with a beautiful roast we had tonight. But just a little goes a long way. You don't want to cover up the taste of the meat, just enhance it. And this surely does that! Thnx so much for posting, Lauren. Made for Fall 2008 PAC.
