Goose Tenderloin Marsala over Vermicelli with Caprese Salad

[indaswamp]

Dinner night with friends...

I pulled out a bag of goose tenderloins to make this dish. Been a while since I have cooked it so it made it back around in the rotation. Since I had fresh home grown tomatoes and basil, the Caprese salad was a no brainer... it was outstanding!

The board...Pistachio and Lemon, Calabrian Sopressata, and Pancetta Piacentina in the middle...

The wine selection tonight, a 2019 Barbara D'Asti and a vintage 2016 Barbaresco. Both were exceptional!

Always a fan of your posts. If I'm ever in LA, I want to come by and at least SMELL what you are having for dinner. And by "If I'm ever in LA", I mean I could leave right now.

Looks great as usual! I've got enough basil right now to feed the city lol. The purple on the right with Italian and lemon basil sharing the container on the left.

Looks fantastic Keith. Substitute the wine for a nice 2023 Genny Cream and I'd be in heaven.

Point for sure

Thanks jcam! My basil plant is pretty much dead now. 3 weeks of heat wave and it was not looking good at all. After harvesting what I could for the meal, it's pretty much done now. I'll see about maybe getting a shade cover for next season to put it under.

Thanks gmc2003! Wine is not for everybody. But a great wine with a great meal-wow what an experience! I've been able to teach non wine drinkers how to appreciate a great wine paired with a great meal. Not all wines are good........
