Passionate about cooking and wine, I look forward to sharing recipes and wine pairing suggestions. Two of my
favorite pastimes, wine and eats, will be the focus of future entries.Cooking can be a creative endeavor or for others a chore.
The recipes and wine entries that follow will hopefully spur your imagination and
make things easier in the kitchen/wine shop.
Over the last year, I have incorporated meatless entrees
into the dinner rotation. Cooking with ingredients that are not refined or mass
produced has broadened my cooking repertoire. Cutting back on meat has focused my
recipe development on other protein sources. Plant based entrees can be
delicious and satisfying.
Recipes are a great place to start for the beginner or a
launching point for the experienced cook. Recipes that align with your typical pantry
items will benefit your confidence and pocketbook. As you become more proficient,
start adding to your spice rack, ingredient variety, and trying more complex
recipes.
Get your favorite chef knife and a wine glass, and let’s get
started.
