The tough task of pairing white truffles

Frankly if you can afford white truffles (currently selling at about 2500 euros per kilo) you probably already have a substantial cellar to pick from but just so you don’t in any way detract from the pleasure of eating your investment let me tell you what the Piedmontese do.

Many people say they don't like chardonnay but as anyone who has a taste for top white burgundy or other premium new world chardonnays will know it’s a spectacular food wine.

Really delicious bottle of Haywire pinot noir from @okcrushpad in the Okanagan Valley at @raynard_the_fox and @hannah_murgatroyd’s last night which managed to stand up to a globe artichoke and - less surprisingly - a beautifully cooked joint of pork. Perfect for a summer (albeit rainy) evening. Stocked by @redsquirrelwine in the UK - if they’ve got any left. Nice work @mattdumayne . . . #pinotnoir #okanaganwine #canadianwine #okcrushpad #wine #instawine #winestagram #foodandwine #presssamplePeonies of joy from @_mikujo_ to cheer you up on yet another miserably wet June day. Another lovely account I’ve discovered through the #ayearinflowers hashtag #regram . . . #flowers #peonies #joyNot often you get your photo taken with a culinary legend. Me and @fergushenderson of @st.john.restaurant at the #bbcfoodawards where he was deservedly given the Derek Cooper Lifetime Achievement award. See Stories and my @food_writer Twitter account for other highlights. . . . #fergushenderson #stjohnrestaurant #chef #legend #derekcooperawardHave become a bit obsessed thanks - or rather no thanks - to @millerdesignuk, with the retro jewellery being stocked by @johnkelly1880 who has a delicious tiny shop at #wappingwharf. This is a pair of earrings from the 90’s (I think) I bought about 3 weeks ago but he keeps on posting more tempting pieces, damn him. . . . #silver #earrings #jewellery #retro #wappingwharf #bristol #latergram Follow on Instagram
