Top pairings for dry and off-dry Alsace whites

Top pairings for dry and off-dry Alsace whites

Posted on April 15 2014 at 07:53

On a recent visit to Alsace, I had the pleasure of rediscovering the region’s diverse wine offerings, from crisp Rieslings to  Gewürztraminer and Pinot Gris. What struck me during this trip was how integral sweetness is to perfecting a food and wine pairing—a nuance that can vary greatly between a youthful bottle and a more aged vintage.

As soon as I spotted that @mark_diacono had a recipe for pasta with runner beans in his glorious new book Abundance I knew I had to make it and it absolutely does my favourite summer vegetable justice. I also added - cos I agree with Mark it’s not quite the right recipe for Parmesan - a little air-fried halloumi which adds a bit of pleasingly salty cheesy crunch. And washed it down with a glass of Albariño. Well done, Mark. A really lovely, hugely readable book. Shall be making many more recipes from it. #pasta #runnerbeans #halloumi #abundanceThe Belgians take their charcuterie seriously down to an entire section in the supermarket. Fun to make a charcuterie board back where we’re staying. (So much cheese we had to put that on a separate board!) Also great mustard (and great chocolate, waffles and beer obvs) #charcuterie #paté #ham #salami #waterlooGlorious meringue mountain at @auxmerveilleuxdefred_brussels.Absolutely cracking birthday lunch @quince_westgate yesterday. . Cured Chalk Stream trout with cucumber dressing and trout roe . . Skate with bouillabaisse sauce and smoked prawns . . And basque cheesecake with summer berries All washed down with a couple of glasses of Albariño . Great little neighbourhood restaurant on the Kent coast. A real find. #curedtrout #skate #basquecheesecake #westgateonsea #birthdayweekend Follow on Instagram
