Coconut-Miso Salmon Curry
This is a more delicate curry. Salmon is used here but any flaky white fish, shrimp or scallops would also work well and benefit from the quick poaching. You can have it ready for the table in half an hour. I love this with the 2021 Winemaker’s Release Dutton Ranch Chardonnay.
Pasta with Bacon, Cheese, Lemon, and Pine Nuts
Any cool shaped pasta can be used here. I chose trofie because it has nooks and crannies for the sauce to get into. This is a simple recipe and great for a quick weeknight entrée. The butter browned pine nuts are delicious but if you can’t find them then slivered almonds also are great. This has the richness to go with the 2021 Russian River Ranches Chardonnay.
