Sciabica's Pomegranate Balsamic Vinegar

Tart, ruby-red pomegranate married to California balsamic: bright, sweet and built for dressing greens.

Pomegranate has been prized around the Mediterranean for thousands of years, and it belongs next to balsamic. The fruit's tartness lifts the vinegar's deep sweetness, so the finish is lively instead of heavy. Sciabica's makes it as a fresh California vinegar, from the same Modesto family that has pressed California olive oil since 1936. Pour a little beside any Sciabica oil and you have one of the best bread dips in the store.

Who this is for

• Bread dipping with Robust & Peppery or Fruity & Smooth olive oil
• Salads with spinach, arugula, goat cheese and walnuts
• Glazing lamb, pork tenderloin, duck or roasted Brussels sprouts
• Splashed over strawberries, peaches or vanilla ice cream
• Sparkling water with a spoonful for a quick shrub

How to use

Whisk one part vinegar to three parts olive oil with a pinch of salt for a simple vinaigrette. For a glaze, simmer in a small pan until it coats a spoon.
