(/thread-797.html) |
- wondersofwine - 02-15-2002 Please suggest a wine to go with cooked penne tossed with olive oil and sliced ripe olives and broiled bell pepper slices. I'm also looking for an easy recipe for raspberry vinaigrette. I printed a couple off the Internet but would value one that's been tested and tasted by one of you. - Bucko - 02-15-2002 Cotes-du-Rhone. - wondersofwine - 02-15-2002 Thanks, Bucko. - Thomas - 02-15-2002 ...or Valpolicella, or Cabernet Franc, or... as for the vinaigrette, I like to mix raspberry vinegar with cracked black pepper and olive oil, and that is all. It's in simplicity where those tastes soar.

Well whatever, I guess you did. Here it is: RASPBERRY-HAZELNUT VINAIGRETTE 3/4 c Hazelnut oil 1/4 c Raspberry vinegar 1 tsp Soy sauce ½ tsp dried chives ½ tsp dried thyme ½ tsp course ground pepper ½ tsp freshly grated nutmeg (or 1/4 tsp ground/tinned) Mortar together the dry ingredients (or spin in a blender or processor). Dissolve the dry ingredients in the vinegar and soy sauce. Mix well. Combine with the oil. Shake or stir vigorously to emulsify the mixture. Store in the refrigerator. - wondersofwine - 02-19-2002 Thank you, IK and Mr. Dutton. Somehow I had missed it. - Innkeeper - 02-20-2002 You're very welcome. - winedope - 02-20-2002 IK,welcome back. thanks for the vinaigrette recipe. I used walnut oil instead, tastes good too. WD |
