Cooking and Wine Pairing Class at Bloomingdales

Valhalla Summertime Ragu – Hearty Tom... Creamy Green Bean Soup

Cooking and Wine Pairing Class at Bloomingdales

Summer is winding down, and I am begining to smell the changing winds, it is in the clowdy skies, the russtling leaves and the boxes of back to school supplies. In order to catch and savor the last vestiges of summer, I am very excited to let everyone know that I will be doing a summer cooking and wine pairing class at Bloomingdale’s.

I will be cooking a three course meal and my friend Tony at Aries Wine and Spirits will be telling you about wines to pair with them. This is going to be a lot of fun for me as I love to hear the thinking that goes behind the matching of wines and spirits with a spicy cuisine such as Indian food. The three course menu with feature,

Kale and Potato Patties with a Roasted Red Pepper Chutney

(Yes, the kale is from our garden)

Lemon Shrimp and Coconut Birayani
Reisling Poached Pears with Saffron and Star Anise

I will be chatting about spices and the regional nuances of Indian cooking.
