Roast venison with tapenade and a modern Spanish red

Roast venison with tapenade and a modern Spanish red

Posted on October 3 2007 at 12:45

Frankly almost any full-bodied red will work with a roast meat like venison but I’m particularly excited about the new breed of modern Spanish reds that are appearing on the shelves.

The weather and the news (gawd!) may be dire but things are really starting to look up in the shops. PSB (purple sprouting broccoli) in my local greengrocer @regthe_veg yesterday. Which also has brilliant pink forced rhubarb (perfect for a homemade cordial), sweet blood oranges (sooo good with fennel) and all kinds of other delicious citrus. Maybe I’ll make lemon curd ...now there’s a thought ...💛 What makes you happy at this time of year? . . . #broccoli #purplesproutingbroccoli #greens #vegetables #veggies #eatlocal #eattheseasons #clifton #bristolIf any day is a day for comfort food it’s a Sunday, particularly these endlessly gloomy February days. So what could be more cheering than @fergushenderson’s Welsh rarebit which you may have had at @st.john.restaurant. There’s a brilliant trick to making it which means you can prep the topping ahead. Oh, and obviously make sure you have a full bottle of Worcestershire sauce. The recipe, from the wonderful Book of St John, is up on the website now (click link in my bio).

Anyway I spotted this in @piccadillywaterstones on Thursday and demolished it in 24 hours. If you haven’t read it it really is PURE JOY - scintillating, insightful, human, laugh-out-loud funny. The chapter on reading, ‘On Rapture’ says it all. . . . #books #bookstagram #journalism #noraephron #bookloverIs there any better match for a great chardonnay (in this case Stephane Tissot’s 2005 Les Graviers from the Jura) than poulet de Bresse and chips? (Don’t even argue!) Thanks @twolightslondon for an EPIC dinner. #guest. . . . #chardonnay #jura #stephanetissot #roastchicken #pouletdebresse #wine #winedinner #winepairing #foodandwine #twolights #shoreditch Follow on Instagram
