Happy Sunday To You Very Fabulous Smoked Cookies!!!
Today's grilled sardines got me on a wine thread!!!
Often I smoke sardines, as I have posted before too, but today with them grilled, I am reminded about how the best wine-food pairings do happen, when the food is so minimalistically prepared and served quite simply.
Case in point:
Grilled sardines over a raw spinach salad, with raw chopped elephant garlic, and then a dressing of whisked olive oil and apple cider vinegar, made for a delightful midday meal!
I enjoyed this with a French White Burgundy (which is made of Chardonnay grape) and the wine was dry and yet smooth and just perfect with this...
I eat the whole thing (sardines) from head, munching right through any teeny grilled up bones or skin or tail - leaving nothing - and it's tremendous!
Whether smoked or grilled, this is a treat, and paired with a dry Chard thus!!!
What are you food-wine pairings on this Sunday???
Please post and share them with all, right here!
Cheers!!!!!!! - Leah
