The best wines to pair with crab

Crab is one of the most delicious kinds of shellfish and the perfect foil for a crisp white wine. But there are other crab dishes that pair better with a fuller-bodied white or even a red.

Junmai sake with cheung fun, asparagus and shiitake mushrooms

Posted on July 16 2018 at 08:18

It’s partly because not enough restaurants offer the option but I don’t drink sake often enough in Asian restaurants. (And yes, I know Asian is an imprecise term but that’s how many describe the food they offer)

Spot on from #davidbowie. Reposted from @wisesagesMore cooking from @noorishbynoor’s Lugma this weekend, my current favourite cookbook. This roasted broccoli salad with lime and chilli dressing and Bombay mix was sensationally good. Best ever way of eating broccoli. . . . #lugma #broccoli #salad #bombaymixThe scrambled eggs with purslane and paprika from @edentravels beautiful new book #greenmountains (see how the cover shines!) I actually used rocket as Caroline recommends cos it’s hard to track down purslane but it was delicious. And 3 veg in a plate of scrambled egg (it also included onion and green pepper) makes it virtuously healthy too. . . . #eggs #brunch #vegetarian #healthyBookending my first meal on the opening day of the new @josephinebouchon Marylebone with fellow fan @thaneeprince with a fabulously wobbly Camembert soufflé and oeufs à la neige. Pork belly with charcutière sauce and pommes purée with an indecent amount of butter in between. The kind of food you just can’t make at home. Or maybe could but wouldn’t. Felicitations @claudebosi1 . . . #josephinebouchon #frenchfood #souffle #camembert #oeufsalaneige #porkbelly Follow on Instagram
