Blackberry Ginger Balsamic

[osprey_archer]

Last week was a good week in tips, so I decided to treat myself to something from the fancy food store next door - the place with barrels of balsamic vinegar lined up along the walls, and helpful clerks who leap at the chance to let you try as many as you want

Aw, it sounds very nice! And yay for finding a way round the less successful cooking, always a win :-)

I have started to view cooking mishaps as an exciting challenge, which is probably a sign that my cooking skills are developing. Although possibly if they were developing, I wouldn't be making so many mishaps... Well, mistakes are inevitable when you experiment!

OMG, your solution to the blackberry caramelized onions sounds amazing. I am a fan of caramelized onions on basically anything (who isn't?), but in particular the brie and blackberry and ginger sounds fantastic.

It is AMAZEBALLS and I had it again for dinner tonight. I think I have enough for one more meal of this - maybe two? - it depends how thickly I spread the onions, I suppose...

Now I want to try all their balsamic vinegars. This one purchase has unleashed a monster.

Very fun to read a delicious food post. I'm imagining your open-faced sandwiches and your spinach salad with fancy blackberry-ginger balsamic vinegar laid out on beautiful china, on a table with a beautiful tablecloth, with sunshine streaming in.

It wasn't quite that fancy, I'm afraid. I def. ate one of the open-faced brie & caramelized onion sandwiches while lying on the couch reading a book. But I guess that's also delightful in its own slightly different way?
