Which wine pairs best with salad?

Which wine pairs best with salad?

Posted on August 11 2024 at 07:21

Asking which wine to pair with salad is a bit like asking about what wine to match with meat or fish. There's no single answer. It depends on the vegetables you use, what other ingredients it contains and what type of dressing you use.

The best food pairings for assyrtiko

There are few grapes that bring Greece to mind like Assyrtiko, the saline wonder of the Cyclades. But what do you pair with it? As often, the answer depends on the winemaking style and terroir, because there is not one Assyrtiko (I should know, I recently tried 80 of them.)

Maybe the best front-of-the-telly snack idea I’ve come across this Christmas: French fries with caviar and crème fraiche dip @bebebob. Which of course makes it spendy for a snack but you could pull the same trick with lumpfish roe. The schnitzel would be a bit more of a hassle to make at home but it was very very good. Add a glass (or two) of champagne and the top notch company of @thaneeprince and you have the perfect Christmas lunch. Thanks @gemmabelleats for making it happen. #guest (Small point, @bebebob, don’t want to seem picky but the traditional buckwheat blini is bitter for a reason and better than those slightly too soft, sweet crepes) *ducks* . . . #caviar #chips #frenchfries #dip #schnitzel #bebebob #londonfoodOne of the best steak tartares I’ve ever had @marmo.restaurant last night and I’ve eaten more than my fair share of steak tartare. Also an utterly dreamy plate of ricotta and cavolo nero agnolotti with pumpkin and sage butter under a billowy cloud of parmesan. (The pasta is always worth ordering but enough for two if you have other dishes so I’d share.) One of my favourite Bristol restaurants. . . . #steaktartare #agnolotti #pasta #pumpkin #marmo #bristolfoodGotta love a wine called bonkers zombie robot alien monsters from the future ate my brain (Sur lie)- a crazy Chardonnay from two vintages given different oak treatment from the. Incredibly talented @ermosug of @sugruesouthdowns. Hard to explain exactly what it tastes like - almost like clotted cream but lush and lemony with incredible acidity. Even better the second day. Like a mature grand cru Chablis. Thinking grilled oysters or scallops. #presssample but not a collab . . #chardonnay #whitewine #englishwine #dermotsugrueReposting this as the accompanying music was doing my head in. (That’ll teach me not to try to be cool 🙄) Few people regard it as obligatory to make their own birthday cake but @essexeating is one of them witness this spectacular - and delicious ~ layered carrot cake from the Momofuku Milk Bar cookbook. The other food was of course brilliant too. And the company and the games 🕺🏼Happy birthday for next week, Dan xx . . . #cake #birthdaycakr #carrotcake Follow on Instagram
