- Hey, everybody, I love vegetables
0:03
and I love vegetables that are coated in wonderful flavors,
0:06
and one of my favorite flavors is balsamic vinegar.
0:09
So I've got on my stove top here,
0:11
a half cup of balsamic vinegar that I've reduced down,
0:13
and it's beginning to thicken.
0:15
And to that, I'm gonna add stick of butter,
0:20
so a half cup of butter and stir that in.
0:27
Smells so good already.
0:28
Just that balsamic is wonderful.
0:30
And my veg is gonna be broccoli.
0:32
So we're gonna coat some broccoli florets
0:36
in a balsamic and butter and brown sugar, red pepper flake,
0:42
and garlic powder combination.
0:48
So like I said, the the balsamic has already reduced down
0:52
and begun to thicken.
0:54
So I've added the butter, brown sugar,
0:57
the red pepper flakes,
0:59
and we'll continue to to cook that.
1:02
And in the meantime, I'm going to steam
1:08
three broccoli florets.
1:13
I'm just gonna put 'em over my little pot here
1:15
and steam those up nice.
1:18
And so while we're waiting on our balsamic and butter
1:21
make sure to come together, let's go ahead
1:22
and take a little break and then I'll come right back.
1:25
Okay, everybody, welcome back.
1:26
Balsamic glazed broccoli.
1:28
So what I did was melted, reduced, and thickened
1:31
a half cup of balsamic vinegar,
1:34
and I added some red pepper flakes, a little brown sugar,
1:36
and some garlic salt.
1:38
And I've steamed some broccoli and it's beautiful now.
1:42
We're gonna go ahead and put it together.
1:50
One of my favorite vegetables, I would say.
1:54
And I'm gonna drizzle it with this.
1:55
Uh-oh, lemme turn that off.
1:59
I'm gonna drizzle it with this beautiful balsamic glaze.
2:06
Boy, is that gonna be good.
2:17
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.
2:22
It's nice and thick, and we'll just toss it
2:25
to coat it a little bit.
2:26
I added enough pepper flakes to give it a little kick,
2:28
but it's not gonna be super hot.
2:32
But if you've got little kids that you wanna feed this to,
2:34
you might wanna dial back on 'em
2:37
or leave them out altogether, you know?
2:40
Once you make a recipe exactly by the directions,
2:43
after that, do whatever you want.
2:46
So I'll just toss this to coat it.
3:00
So butter, balsamic, red pepper flakes, brown sugar,
3:11
And it looks so great.
3:12
I'm not gonna let it just sit in that pool of liquid.
3:18
I'm gonna take that out and plate it.
3:19
So why don't we go ahead and do that.
3:31
This would be nice on the side of a salad,
3:34
or you could put it right on top of your salad
3:36
if you wanted to, or you could just eat it plain
3:42
This has got a very Asian feel to me,
3:43
so with this, I might wanna make a stir fry chicken
3:51
Gosh, it smells so good, the balsamic.
4:08
The broccoli is steamed perfectly.
4:10
You don't wanna overcook broccoli
4:11
or any vegetable for that matter.
4:13
It'll lose all of its nutrients,
4:16
which after all, you do want, right?
4:19
I think that's the point of eating your vegetables.
4:30
Looks and smells really, really nice.
4:32
I think I'm gonna take one and taste it here.
4:43
Vegetables can be and are delicious as well as good for you.
4:47
So there you go, a balsamic glazed broccoli.
4:53
The longest part of this recipe is, excuse me,
4:58
reducing the balsamic.
5:00
It takes about six to eight minutes to do that.
5:02
But this is a beautiful, tasty, delicious recipe
5:05
and I think that you'll like it.
5:06
So thanks for joining me.
