What wine - and other drinks - to pair with cheesecake

What wine - and other drinks - to pair with cheesecake

Posted on February 26 2016 at 09:59

The most useful clue to the kind of wine that works with cheesecake is to think of the toppings and flavourings that are used in cheesecake recipes rather than the base.

There’s no doubt about it, trifle is tricky. If it includes booze already do you serve more on the side? And what kind of booze should that be?

Although it's still a bit nippy at night, the blossom is out, it feels like spring and the clocks are going forward in the UK this weekend. So here's a light lunch to enjoy with a couple of friends that has a touch of spring about it but still includes a warming stew.

Dartmouth looks gorgeous even on a stormy day. Here talking about wine and hanging out with good friends for @dartmouthfoodfestival, one of my favourite events of the year. Come down if you’re nearby! . . . #dartmouth #river #boats #coast #devon #dartmouthfoodfestival #clouds #skyVery pretty plate of cured salmon @gezelliglnd last night, topped with burnt apple and Jerusalem artichoke chips. Why has no-one thought of giving cured - or smoked - salmon a crunchy topping before? . . . #salmon #curedsalmon #jerusalemartichoke #starter #gezellig #holbornstudiosIncredible meal at @ikoyi_london last night full of brilliant colours and African-inspired flavours I’ve never tasted before - a bit like when we first encountered New Nordic. It was hard to keep up with exactly what was going on on the plate but the vivid orange and black pumpkin dish (top R) used the flesh, seeds and skins - and a spoonful of Danish caviar on top. There is no menu - you just tell them if there’s anything you can’t eat and the 7 course menu costs £75. There’s a shorter cheaper menu at lunchtime when it’s also easier to get in. Extraordinary. Go! #guest. . . . #africanfood #finedining #londonrestaurants #ikoyipropertiesforsalePickle heaven @thepig_hotel. . . . #pickles #preserves #larder #pantry #instafood #foodstagram Follow on Instagram
