With all the enthusiasm for white wine in the last few years, sangria, a delightful red wine fruit punch, has been overlooked for summer parties. Serve frosty pitchers at barbecues and picnics.
Roary MacPherson, executive chef of the Sheraton Hotel in St. John's, N.L., created this sweet and savoury glazed salmon dish to highlight a local product: Lady of the Woods Birch Sap Wine. You can order this wine at sapworld.ca, or use a sweet white wine, such as Riesling or Sauternes, in its place.
Sweet squash and anise-flavoured fennel make this stew particularly satisfying on cool nights. Instead of the wine, you can use sodium-reduced chicken stock mixed with 1 tsp (5 mL) wine vinegar.
This intensely rich dark chocolate cake is for grown-ups only (but you can find the recipe for our kid-friendly version, Spiced Chocolate Bundt Cake, below). We used Cabernet Sauvignon for its balance of deep fruity and black pepper flavours, but you can use whatever type of red you have on hand. A sprinkling of our Candied Sage gives the cake an extra-special finish.
French cr? de cassis is the inspiration for this sweet and fruity liqueur. This drink makes a refreshing cocktail by topping 1 oz (25 mL) with 4 oz (125 mL) chilled white wine, sparkling white wine or soda water.
The subtle, earthy flavours of leeks and shiitake mushrooms naturally complement chicken. Serve this easy entertaining dish with mashed potatoes or rice. If you're not cooking with wine, replace it with chicken stock, adding 2 tsp (10 mL) white wine vinegar.
Start to cook the shrimp as soon as the pasta goes into the water. Then the sauce will be ready as soon as the pasta is drained. You can substitute sodium-reduced chicken stock mixed with 1 tbsp (15 mL) white wine vinegar for the wine.
