Buon Anno! #ItalianFWT Pours and Pairs Aglianico and Kicks off 2022 with "From the Vine"

By

 
As the year wraps up, I'm turning my eyes towards all of the fun we're going to have next year. So, I'm kicking off 2022's #ItalianFWT with an event that it wide open in its scope. I've invited the group to watch the movie From the Vine (available free on Amazon to Prime members). Then we are free to explore any Aglianico wine and pairings or recall any travel memories from Basilicata. Any combination or standalone focus is welcome. 

Watch the movie to find out why I picked the Aglianico grape as our focus. Buon anno! Happy 2022!

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

By
If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect.

I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce
