Spanish balsamic adds a flair of culinary artistry. A gourmet kitchen without balsamico vinegar is hard to imagine. Less than 20 years ago, balsamico was nearly an obscure Tuscany accoutrement. Now, gourmet chefs utilize it more and more. A couple of drops of the very best balsamico on ripe strawberries, bartlett pears, or other fruit is a customary combination to end a main course.
