A wonderfully versatile, oil-free dressing, lovingly hand-made with aged Italian balsamic vinegar infused with Madagascan black pepper, French garlic and a perfectly balanced blend of herbs and spices.
Whether you’re a passionate home cook or a seasoned professional, this richly layered condiment brings depth and character to any dish. Use it to dress salads, caramelise oven-roasted vegetables, marinate meats, or enrich sauces, casseroles, gravies, and bolognese.
Alternatively, drizzle over pizza, pasta, bruschetta and Caprese

I have been using the Gilly’s Original Balsamic Dressing for years now, it’s an essential in our larder, full of flavour and really good in sauces such as bolognese, perfect on tomato and mozzarella salad and my secret ingredient in gravy.

My grandma has been using the Original Balsamic Dressing for over five years, and it’s still her favorite especially on her halloumi salads. I love her cooking so much, and this dressing is a part of why her food feels like home. Thank you, Gilly’s, for creating something she loves this much.

I have been buying this since we discovered Gillys at a stand at a food festival in Emsworth many many years ago. My mother-in-law and daughter are addicted to this orginal dressing, but also love the other variants. It’s delicious and we really have not ever found anything else like it.

My family and I have enjoyed this amazing dressing for 20+ years, it’s just fabulous and every pantry should have a bottle or two on the shelf. Great in so many ways, but just dipping decent crusty bread into the Original Balsamic is just divine.

This is my absolute favourite of the whole Gilly’s range and that’s saying something as I love them all. No salad is complete without it but it can be used with so many other things too. It’s genuinely amazing!

I bought a bottle of Gilly’s Balsamic Dressing as a Christmas gift for my parents, not entirely sure what to expect. Well, it turned out to be an absolute winner! They loved it so much that it has become a permanent staple on their dining table.
The flavour is rich, perfectly balanced (not too sweet, not too sharp), and it elevates everything from simple salads to roasted veggies and even drizzled over grilled meats.

5 Stars for Gillys Original Balsamic Vinegar
Why 5 Stars? Quite simply because it is the best I have ever tasted in all the world! I am not exaggerating and I am not alone because all my family and my friends were given a bottle of it for Christmas and everyone loves it like me and would give it 5 Stars too!
Thank you Gillys!!!
