I make salad dressing with balsamic and olive oil, and add a little
bit of brown sugar. I also have been known to put balsamic vinegar on
strawberries. Yum!

Too expensive to use the good stuff all the time, though. I've got a
200 ml bottle of fig balsamic that cost something like $18, and I
ration it.
