We often think and talk about the health benefits of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, but did you know Balsamic Vinegars also have certain healthy qualities? Studies have shown that Balsamic Vinegars help our bodies with digestion, add antioxidants to our food, and help control blood sugar. Balsamic Vinegars may also reduce the risk of heart attacks, help with headaches, strengthen muscles and contain antibacterial properties that help our immune systems.
Balsamic Vinegars are an excellent source of natural sweetness because there is absolutely no sugar added. This natural sweetness comes from the fermentation process of the grape must, which is left to age for anywhere from 10 to 50 years. This results in the thick, dark colored vinegar that we all know and love.
At Olive Lucy, we offer our 18 year aged Traditional Dark Balsamic Condimento and 23 year aged Molto Denissimo. For those of you who might like a lighter alternative to the traditional dark balsamic vinegars, we offer the 12 year aged White Balsamic Condimento. These three offerings, are all natural, with no additional flavoring, coloring or additives. They make the perfect dressing for your spring and summer salads, or as a finishing glaze, sauce or condiment for roasted vegetables, pan seared fish, chicken or beef dishes. Our balsamic vinegars also pair perfectly with our fresh selection of extra virgin olive oils, as well as our flavored olive oils, for an increase in added flavor and health enhancement.
The benefits containing a regular intake of Balsamic Vinegars have been proven again and again. Shop our for our balsamic vinegars online or visit our shop in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania to experience the many flavors of Balsamic Vinegars.
