New definitions of marriage

Recommended Posts

I declare marriage to mean the holy joining together of shallots and butter. Of fois gras and seared tenderloin. Of sweetened sauvignon blanc reduction syrup and lightly simmered pears.



NO NO NO where are those Queer Eye Guys, you drink RED wine with meat. It's immoral to drink a white with tenderloin, we need a law against it

The tenderloin was with a lovely italian red. What do you think I am?

Besides, I'm not sure one would DRINK my sauvignon blanc reduction. It's a bottle of california white lightly sweetened and boiled down to two tablespoons of silky syrup. I drizzled that over the tender pears and fresh cognac whipped cream. Dessert was served with grappa and coffee.

My cooking is approved by all major religious traditions.

This is officially food porn. Why don't you come to Eloy and elaborate more on your theories of marriage by cooking us dinner? YUM!

Spending a summer in France has me agreeing whole heartedly! Red wine with red meat, white vino with chicken and fish.

I disagree. I rarely, if ever drink white wine. Red wine with beef, chicken, AND fish.

The only use for white wine is as an aperatif before dinner, or as desert aftter the meal. That, and to cook with, which is what narcimund was doing.

I enjoy drinking white wines, but I do agree that it's a rare white that I enjoy with food. Mostly whites are overpowered by food (at least the way I cook!) so I keep a vast range of reds to choose from.

It's a wild experience to pour a whole bottle of wine in a saucepan and boil it to syrup. The smell is heavenly but when you're done all 750 milliliters are compressed into 2 tablespoons of essence. Expensive essence but a mind blowing flavor!

I can, but I become much more efficient at these tasks if allowed to liberally sample the very nice food in between... When I'm really hungry, cleanup is easy: put all extra food onto my plate, eat it, lick plates clean, quick rinse, all done! ;)
