Wine on Wednesdays: Winery Recipes
One way to enjoy wine (in my opinion, one of the BEST ways) is to cook with wine. I love trying new recipes and I love trying new wines (tip: it helps to get through the new recipe with a great glass of new wine…).
Here are some wineries that offer delicious-sounding recipes:
Robert Mondavi has an official recipe search page including the sublime sounding Ancho-Glazed Halibut Tacos with Avocado
St. Francis has an equally attractive recipe search that includes a recipe for an inventive dish (that I am going to try very soon!): Gnocchi Stuffed with Mushrooms.
Fritz Winery has a few recipes to offer, plus they encourage their customers to send in recipes featuring their wines. Here’s a delectable recipe for Duck with Blackberry Sauce using Fritz Old Vine Zinfandel.
Mirassou Winery has a wine-inspired recipe page with pictures of recipes including Baby Wellingtons whose cuteness and potential deliciousness hooked me right away.
Bennett Lane Winery offers some tasty recipes including the Thai Lobster Rolls with Mango Sauce and some tempting photos of other great-sounding recipes.
Columbia Winery collaborates with the Barking Frog located right near the winery. Recipes include the Grilled Quail with Preserved Lemon Vinaigrette and Grilled Watercress.
Cooking with wine is an adventure. Even if things don’t work out perfectly, there’s still wine to drink and good food to eat. What could be more satisfying?
