Pasta Puttanesca
2011-06-06 15:55:31
We are loving Emeril Lagasse's puttanesca recipe rich with Roma plum tomatoes, kalmata olives, capers, anchovies and spiced up with red pepper flakes. This pasta is perfect to entertain a large group of people due to the simple but flavor-loaded sauce and basic penne pasta. Keep the meal in the Italian family with an Italian red wine such as the 2008 Maculun Palazzotto Cabernet Sauvignon from Berganze in the region of Veneto for only $29.99. Buon Appetito!

Pad Thai and Riesling
2011-06-10 15:15:46
From Thai Table, a simple Pad Thai recipe perfect for summer nights and dinner parties. The recipe is filled with tips and techniques for getting those noodles soaked to perfection and creating an authentic Bangkok taste. We suggest pairing a riesling with this dish and for good reason. The riesling grape offers a strong acidity that balances the rich falvors of thai food. This particular wine, the 2009 Saint Urbans-Hof Riesling from Mosel, Germany offers enticing peach, apricot, lime, and slate aromas and flavors, with a touch of vanilla cream. It is creamy, yet bright and pure, with persistence and a complex finish. Come in the store and buy it today for only $27.99. Recipe: http://www.thaitable.com/thai/recipe/Pad-Thai

Lambchops with Balsamic Reduction and a Spanish Grenache Blend
2011-06-12 15:53:37
Chef Hain Celestial has developed a delicious juicy lambchops recipe guaranteed to be a fan favorite. The recipe creates tender lamb chops flavored with rosemary, mint, and thyme are served with a savory shallot and balsamic vinegar sauce. Wash down the delicate meat with one of our grenache blends. Cooking lambchops can be costly, so we have paired this dish with the 2009 Bula from Spain with 40% Mazuelo, 40% Grenache, and 20% Syrah selling for only $17.99. This wine offers up a lightly roasted, liqueur-like bouquet of mineral, incense, game, lavender, black cherry, and blueberry. Rich and complex on the smooth-textured palate, this layered offering is an incredible value in full-flavored red wine. An incredible dollar value and a perfect match for this savory dish.
