Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    The unique flavor and color of this salad can be attributed to the balsamic vinegar. Balsamic is imported from Italy and has a full bodied,slightly sweet flavor and rich reddish brown color. Available in kitchen specialty shops and some large supermarkets, it is definitely worth the extra cost.
