This versatile condiment brings a balanced mix of sweet, salty, acidic, and herbaceous flavors that complement virtually any pizza. If it’s not pizza night but you’ve got leftovers, drizzle this over roasted vegetables, cooked chicken, or a crispy-skinned piece of fish.

Ingredients

¼ cup honey
1 Tbsp. finely chopped rosemary
Kosher salt
1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
¼ red onion, thinly sliced

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine honey, rosemary, and 2 Tbsp. water in a small saucepan over medium heat; season with salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve honey, then cook, swirling pan occasionally, until slightly thickened and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar and cook 1 minute to evaporate some of the vinegar. Remove from heat and stir in onion. Let cool in pan.

    Step 2

    Do ahead: Agrodolce can be made 1 week ahead. Let cool, then cover and chill. Bring to room temperature and stir to combine before using.
