10 good wine pairings with paté

Posted on July 14 2023 at 08:18

By paté I’m thinking of what wines to drink with rough country patés and terrines like a paté de campagne rather than fish patés or vegetarian patés which I’ll tackle separately. The sort that you might take on a picnic or eat in a wine bar.

The best pairings for amontillado and palo cortado sherry

Posted on November 7 2023 at 06:59

Amontillado sherry has richer, nuttier flavours than a classic fino or manzanilla sherry and calls for different food matches. Think more in terms of cured meat, game and cheese than seafood and richer, meatier tapas.

Delicious fish ball tagine @kasbah_bab_ourika high up in the Atlas foothills outside Marrakech. It also has stunning views and a gorgeous garden . . . #moroccanfood #tagine #boulettes #ourikaLearning how to make Moroccan breads though doubt if I’ll be able to replicate them. Asma does it effortlessly without measurements by eye and by feel. And they were so delicious @field_kitchen_marrakech . . . #flatbread #harcha #msemen #breadmaking #marrakech #moroccanfoodVery good Jerusalem artichoke salad @anglothai yesterday alongside a great aubergine dish. Preceded by eye-wateringly hot oysters and a very good tempura lemongrass sausage - the only time I’ve fancied a battered sausage. Enjoyed the Thai elements more than the Anglo ones but set menu so you don’t get to choose. Terrific house wine though especially - and surprisingly - the red. . . . #thaifood #salad #oysters #winepairing #anglothaiThe poolside bar at @lidobristol is just the best kind of wine bar with a decent basic list and way above average, affordable bar food including this dish of porchetta with salsa verde and pumpkin caponata. (We drank the ever reliable Azevedo vinho verde.) One of the recommendations in my recently updated Bristol resto roundup on my Substack.
