In Dean & DeLuca: A Book of Food and Wine, 75 inspired recipes are paired with carefully chosen varietal wines that celebrate the wine country's abundance of both grapes and fresh produce. Introductory chapters on the different types of wine and the reasons each go with certain foods give the reader a base on which to experiment using their own matching choices.
Recipe chapters include appetizers and aperitifs to desserts and friandises - small after-meal sweets - and everything in-between. Beautiful colour photos, both of the recipes and of the wine country landscape, a map showing the different wine producing regions, a quick and easy food and wine matching chart, and a glossary of both food and wine terms complete the book and make the entire package a great value. Dean & Deluca has long been a vital destination for those looking for the finest gourmet ingredients and most prestigious wines. This book shows how to put it all together for the ultimate gourmand experience.
