Balsamic and Maple Salmon
Balsamic vinegar is a particularly useful pantry staple. It has more flavour and less sour than other vinegars. It also has zero sodium, making it a great choice for sauces and marinades. In this recipe, the tartness of the balsamic vinegar is paired with maple syrup. The maple syrup goes well with the natural sweetness of the fish and the sauce doesn’t add any sodium to the recipe.
