Rumaki

I've seen them served individually on toothpicks. It doesn't cry out for wine, but my first choice would be Champagne, followed by a Sauvignon Blanc, most likely one with plenty of acidity (NZ).

All I have is the Kenwood on hand. I was hoping a red would do the trick.

I wouldn't expect a red with bacon and chicken liver to match that well. Maybe a Sangiovese.

Thanks,

I will have to settle for wine as an after dinner drink tonight.

I did the Ramaki on the grill. I love the way the grill flavors things. The bacon, water chestnuts and liver tasted great. I threw some tomatoes on as a side dish. Strangley I discovered that grilled tomatoes with grilled bacon is a delicious match. I had it with an American Champagne (I know you guys have seen European Vacation).

Board-O, you were right about red wine not matching liver. I had to waterpick and gargle before I could begin drinking my St. Supery Cab. It tasted awful till I cleansed my palate.

The salty, smoky flavor of bacon, imo, doesn't go well with wine. Liver is a pairing problem also. I didn't mention it before because I didn't think of it, but Sauternes might have been OK, though I sure wouldn't open a special one with this dish.

Yeah, Coca-Cola was the only option.

I am of observatory and contemplate.... You obtain and possess the palates of intrigues and scandal, good tomodachi.


Frenchy Riesring is beat the coca-ecolla of every instance. I witness with myself's eye and retell the instance to you - do not fry it at the home, the coca-coalla. Bad habits.

Chunky of style, the puke must so for easy piercement with stick. Germanic food is very mostly suited - very sorid and characteristical with big nuggets.

Why don't you like liver? Discuss.

It tastes like crap and I don't do organs.

Grunhauser,

Do the decent thing and take Renquist with you.
