Balsamic vinegar originated long ago in Italy.
Today it is commonly used as a salad dressing, made from grape juice. In this recipe potato wedges are dipped in the vinegar and covered in grated Parmesan cheese. By cooking the wedges in a small amount of olive oil, you don’t have to worry about extra fat and calories.
