Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Combine strawberries, balsamic vinegar, and sugar in a small saucepan.

  2. Step 2

    Heat over medium, stirring gently, until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Simmer without stirring until sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, 2–3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Pour into a bowl and let cool 2 minutes — the glaze will thicken as it cools.

  5. Step 5

    Serve warm or at room temperature.
