mich's brie with balsamic syrup

After seeing this on Jalna's blog, I had to try it.

You make a balsamic syrup reduction, and drizzle it over brie cheese.

Well, if you read the recipe, actually you're supposed to fry the cheese to get it oozy, but I took the "lazy man" approach and just took the easy parts of the recipe.

I made the reduction, cutting the recipe to 1/4.

I sprinkled roasted & chopped mac nuts onto our brie slices.

Then drizzled the balsamic reduction on.

So good!

I think our apples are bit too sweet for this combo but it does work with toasted baguette.

Really nice with red wine.

I'm making this again.

    I originally ate that at Kincaid's at Ward Center (Hawaii), I loved it sooooo much and was so happy that I found that recipe online. Glad you enjoyed it too! Mich

    Yes, the restaurant is still open. Other delish things to try is their lobster bisque and for dessert creme brulee.

    I love using balsamic reductions or using balsamic glazes Kat. One of my favorites is making a balsamic-mirin-shoyu glaze for steaks of chicken.

    Brie is so easy to dress up and tastes good no matter how it's prepared. Was this a quick snack or pre-dinner apps for you guys?
