Street Taco with Fruit Salsa (Peach or Strawberry Balsamic)

Sometimes fresh fruits can be hard to come by in the Winter. You can preserve some for special occasions by freezing. When defrosted they will be broken down, but they still have great flavor and can be used in sauces and salsas. When you combine them with a matching fruit balsamic vinegar, the fruit flavors pop even more and you get that tangy bite for contrast that vinegar can add.

In this sample, we used fresh peaches and peach balsamic vinegar to make peach salsa. Strawberries also freeze well and can be used for this recipe too with white strawberry balsamic vinegar.

In summer this recipe can be used with fresh fruit too!

White balsamic adds that vinegar tang to fruit compote while adding its own fruity intensity making a delicious warm topping on ice cream, crusty bread and cheese, and braised pork or poultry.

Balsamic fruit compote can be made with frozen fruit in the Winter and fresh fruit in the Summer. My favorite all year fruits for this dish are strawberries and peaches.

The example here is using peaches over crusty bread and cheese. Substitute strawberries and white strawberry balsamic for the alternative.
