HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Do you like balsamic vinegar? But not those cheap bottles in the supermarket, I'm talking about the good stuff! Aceto balsamico tradizionale di Modena DOP. This is made in artisanal fashion in a very specific region of Italy, and it is the gold standard. How do they make it, precisely? And what is the history of this process? It's more fascinating than you think, I promise!

I have been a chef for 40 years. The italian chefs i worked with have by far the most love for pure products.the amount of blasphemy around italian food is astounding
blasphemy?
@@strider_hiryu850 yes . The italians are religious about their food.:” you CANNOT putte the garlic in a bolognese”
@@AliavondenMessern what part?? And its oke you disagree with me. I disagree with me
@@urielpolak9949 huh
Honestly, 800 dollars for product aged for 100 years seems pretty reasonable to me. I was expecting so much worse
compared to wine prices sounds alright
Drinking game:
Drink 1 shot of Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena every time Dave says "Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena"
A very expensive game...
My God are you trying to bankrupt everyone
@@borttorbbq2556 you will be dead before you get to finish the game its too strong lol
I first learned about real balsamic vinegar from Alton Brown’s food science show Good Eats. I was probably 11 years old or so. I asked for a bottle for my birthday. 😂 I keep a bottle along with other pricey items for special occasions, or for days when I just want to treat myself. Balsamic on ice cream? One of my *favorite* treats, ever. I usually do strawberry ice cream and a sprinkle of flake salt or smoke flake salt. 😋
Oooo. I'm going to have to try the salt idea. I use mine exactly the same way.
you fancy huh! sounds delicious.
Alton Brown on Good Eats was a great show
Wow - you had a more sophisticated palate at a young age than I probably do now, lol
I'm going to wait for the Parmigiano Reggiano DOP video now! (I'm from Emilia Romagna)
That's on the way!
Guarantee this is going to be my new favorite video when it comes
I came for the flat-earth bashing and ended up learning more about balsamic vinegar than I thought possible!
Thank you Dave! I learned something new and interesting from this video! I’m of Italian origin, left Italy 30+ years ago and food is one of the things that keep me linked to Italy.
You have great Italian pronunciation 👍
He is second generation Italian American (his parents emigrated from Italy), and also has Italian language lessons on this channel!
I live in Croatia, country next to Italy, so I have the chance to enjoy Italy's best at wholesale prices :)
Ok I’m visiting!
Just saying, I'm literally from Modena and I learned a lot from this video
wow this guy sure explains
Always nice hearing a man of science reveal his humanity by sharing his culture
I hate balsamic vinegar, and now I’m determined to try the authentic version to see if I feel different about that. My mom loves it, and now I know what to get her for her birthday!
Quite lucky to have a small local shop where I pick up olive oil and balsamic. An amazing experience, as each type of olive oil and balsamic are setup with tasting cups. I've become more a fan of the white balsamic, especially for deserts and fruit, as it tends to be sweeter.
Desert pizzas are amazing when you use a fruit infused olive oil for the crust, with accompanying fruits on top, drizzled with good quality chocolate and a white balsamic.
Wow ! I just learned a lot. 🤯 Here I've been loving balsamic vinegar for a very long time, and I realize I may not have a clue what it's actually supposed to taste like. Adventure time !
Try it, it's absolutely worth it.
I love your opening jingle.
Professor Dave, i love this video. I went to University to learn Winemaking in California and your videos helped me pass chemistry, physics & biology and ultimately prepared me for my career i wine making. It would be so awesome if you could make a winemaking video!
If someone who knows how to make wine wants to write the scripts that could be cool!
It sounds like you should help make a script for that video!
That sounds like an amazing idea
Perfect accent. Ottimo lavoro con la lingua
This production process reminds me of a good scotch whisky more than it does vinegar. But that sounds amazing, I have to try it sometime.
Damn, i am italian and your pronounciation is actually pretty good!
Vero?
In my 37 years (most of those living with my immigrant grand parents) I've never thought to put balsamico on my cheese, fruit or ice cream. Now I'm going to have to try it.
Hey Dave, have you ever got a chance to taste one of those Tradizionale vinegars yourself? Also, in Canada, they charge around $70 for one bottle (12 years), which is much more than what was said in the video. But anyways, very informative video as balsamic vinegar is one of the most misinformed products in any market.
Being that I am Italian myself and enjoy Balsamic this has been enlightening. Thank's Prof!
Excellent! Thank you so much for this thorough lesson.
Now I want to try some of that with ice cream. Sounds like a treat!
Dave, how is every single video you make so fascinating? I never knew there was so much to know about balsamic vinegar. Thanks for the great content, keep up the great work!
Also earth is flat.
You actually believe earth is flat?
@@eddiesimba2106 of course not. Just memeing around
Wow! I love this stuff but never knew it was this extreme
Balsamic on a rich vanilla ice cream is a delicious treat!
I have watched this video about 7 times. Only to hear Dave say aceto balsamico tradizionale di modena
5:05 "most cotto", to be clear, "must" is any liquid intended to become a wine, and its beer equivalent is called "wort." Good video, carry on.
Always part of my purchase whenever I visit Italy - Always Extra Vecchio
Great video professor! I hope you hit 2M subscribers soon!
I have tried balsamic and I didn't like it. It's nice to know that it wasn't just because I am a heathen .... I mean, I am but the vinegar I tried was the supermarket kind. I might try the 12-year-old version of this and see what I think.
Learned something new.
Thanks for that.

Hi, this is very good explenation but remember that the +-50 acetaias you mentioned are more like commercial stuff. In Modena we have about 4500 families who have an acetaia at home. The real balsamic vinegar is made by thoes families, visit our channel to find out more and if you pop in Modena, please contact us to visit one of those acetaia.
I would definitely give the more affordable bottle a try.
Nice video sir
This was very enlightening! Now I have to go look at my balsamic vinegar bottle. Certainly it will be the cheap stuff!
Wow. I should have capitalized all those letters. Great stuff, thanks.

"Why Modena? What's so special about this place?"
Enzo Ferrari was born there for starters...😀🏎
Best ice cream topping on the planet! Hell.. in the universe!
I have tried that stuff before it is incredible
I think the one I tried was something like 20 years aged it was incredible
Professor Dave you have strange interests and I love it because I do too
This video is just him flexing his Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena....
and I like it
Well, after this video I will be ok with just purchasing Acceto balsamico di Modena, thank you very much
Great stuff, thanks a lot.
Bravo Dave!! really torough and your italian is fantastic. its strangely refreshing watching a totally different perspective on something you take for granted. now i would love your take on Mortadella di Bologna😉
I've heard of balsamic vinegar with ice cream. And from what I heard, it's oddly delicious.
Just in case this comment is taken with ill intent. That's not the case. At all. Nah, it's more in the context of "I didn't think these two things that have an opposite flavor would blend well.".
Are you gonna put this in your italian language playlist? I'm not sure what catrgory this interesting video falls into.
It is there.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Oh thanks! Also, my sentence seems to be lacking words yet you understood what I meant. I'm gonna fix that.
Can u make a vid on entomology
I love how complex insects inner workings are
Somebody please, I beg, where can I get this stuff and be sure I get the right product??
Great video Professor Dave!
Which type of "balsamic vinegar" requires the Prop 65 health warning label I've seen in California?
My mouth is watering for a taste I don't even know.
OMG I had know idea, I got to try the real deal.
grazie mille... 🙏🙏🙏👌👌👌👌🖖🖖🖖🖖
To make an economic approximation of the unaffordable real stuff, put a decent supermarket version in a saucepan and reduce until viscous.
I fuck with balsamic so this shit blew my mind, however my sleep cycle doesn’t thank you
It’s just like San Marzano tomatoes 🍅. There aren’t enough tomatoes plants in all of Italy 🇮🇹 to have as many cans of “San Marzano” tomatoes 🤷🏻♂️
Sneaky marketing.
You should do a video on Saronno the birthplace of Amaretto 🥃
Add 2oz of Amaretto to a glass of ginger ale and tell me that it doesn’t taste exactly like Dr. Pepper 😋
Grazie!!!!
Hi Dave
I have a bottle of "Aceto Balsamico di Modena" of the poducer (Guido) Ponti. It is also "Indicatione Geografica Protetta"
Also mentionned is this "prodotto a vigniolla Modena Around a redshieldwith light "gold" cross. Thecontentis 500 ml
What isyour opinion about that "Balsamico"?
Thank you on forehand.
Btw great work: you have at least one fan from Belgium :D
Nice
Geez my vodka is like 8 bux. Arigato Sensei.
Love your chanel
mamma mia!
👍
Gah! touching a nerve here.
I had a bottle ten years ago given by a friend, my wife threw it out as she "thought it had gone off as it was too thick". 🤦♂
I hope the divorce wasn't too rough for you :)
Why was my comment deleted in which I mentioned a great Aceto Balsamico di Modena?
RUclips has a strange auto filter algorithm. Maybe you put a link.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Hm... No, I didn´t.
I will try again underneath that comment...
Was deleted again...
I would love to find a 12 yo for $25! I haven’t seen anything under $40 for awhile (maybe in Italy?)
Reading this comment without context is shocking
@@m.c.3583
LMAO
Yeah...that was our conversion price from Euro for a little bottle purchase directly in one of the acetaie. Who knows what happens when it ends up in Eataly, William-Sonoma or other places like that...
Nice Italian accent
Normally I'm an atheist
this product however makes me wonder if their might, after all, be a benevolent God
and I only have a cheapish 'aceto balsamico di modena I. G. P.' by "Ponti" from my local supermarket in the Netherlands for about 7 euros or so (250ml)
Ponti is one of the cheapest and commercial Aceto we have here in Italy
. You gonne make us some pasta carbonara? Roma style?? Hmmm i love reducing balsamico. With anything, cognac, red wine , françelico.or just bake guanciale than take the hot fat with balsamic and brown sugar and drizzle over fresh spinach. Hhmm i am gonne cook now
The earth is an inflated disc.
Take my comment for the algorithm.
Awful stuff.
Ruins your fish and chips.
Got it as a present thank goodness I didn't pay that sort of money.
😂
that's a big word for elmo
Doesnt this "perfect klima" in modena change due to climate change?
Mmmm now I want some with my fries
It's surprisingly not as expensive as I expected. At least for the 12 years aged batch haha
:) yummy vinegar
nah thats cheap, I will buy 10x and throw away 9x to make it seem more premium
This is…. Italian wine for SNOBS. Yeah, you, trolls.
none of them.
Aceto non è altro che vino andato a male.
E il parmigiano (è poi preferisco il grana) e latte andato a male.
Yea I know I’m being a d..k okay.
And your italian sounds like some random guy from RAI from the 70’s.
Scusa per il TDC-issmo ma è più forte di me.
Comunque gran video, complimenti ti sei meritato un bel like 👍.
Cos'è il TDC-issmo? Comunque, prova a lasciare il latte fuori dal frigorifero una settimana, poi assaggialo e dimmi se sa di parmigiano :-) :-D ;-)
@@Wolf.51.50 TDC-ismo sta per testa di cazzismo…
@@mariokajin aaah... in effetti... ;-) scherzo. Ma perché "random guy from RAI"? A chi ti riferisci?
That swill is nasty
So there is no culture of microorganisms involved???
where did you find the 25$ bottle professor? quite impressive.
