Jan shared some fine balsamic vinegar with me and so I decided to try a recipe in Andrea Immer's book that had always intrigued me. Strawberries in balsamic vinegar served on toasted flat bread with some mozzarella cheese.
Immer's recipes are generally simple and exact. This one was relatively simple until you tried to get the proportions to add up. I had to adjust the propotions to make it sort of work. 4 pitas instead of 6. Less cheese per quarter. Less vinegar on the final product. Up the cooking time.
We enjoyed the flavors. We think more pepper and basil next time. We also wondered if our vinegar was too fine and maybe a little more bite would be fun. I would try a hotter oven or maybe the broiler.
