Food Thoughts

Great pairing with Firesteed Riesling:

Classic Zabaglione:

Ingredients:

6 egg yolks

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup Firesteed Riesling

Directions

Simmer water in bottom of double boiler. If you don't have one, a saucepan filled with about 2 inches of water, and stainless steel mixing bowl works perfectly here.

In the top of a double boiler, (or ss bowl), combine all ingredients and mix with a hand held mixer until the delicious flavors reach the texture of perfectly whipped cream. Remove quickly from heat and serve warm or chilled, whichever you prefer.

Great pairing with Firesteed Pinot Gris:

Spinach & Pear Salad with White Balsamic Vinaigrette:

Ingredients:
: Bunch of fresh baby spinach; 1 pear (Bosc or Anjou) pealed, cored, and thinly sliced; Toasted walnuts; Gorgonzola cheese (crumbled); White Balsamic Vinaigrette:; 2 tbs. white balsamic vinegar; 1 tbs. chopped fresh flat leaf parsley; 1 tsp. minced shallot; 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil; Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Wisk all ingredients together in a small bowl, except for salt and pepper. Then season with salt and pepper to taste.

ENJOY!
