Disclaimer

Just so my (2) faithful readers don't think I'm a complete drunk, or a wasteful sot, I would like that tonight I am making Boeuf Vigneronne with all of the "bottle ends" of the wines I'm tasting and posting about. After a day or so has passed, most wines lose their appeal to me (now that I'm more of a snob than ever) - especially the reds. To rather than trying to consume a bottle of wine a day, or pouring a lot of wine (and money) down the drain, I reserve whatever I don't drink for cooking purposes. I have a 3/4 bottle of one (the Greek - hoping cooking it will give it some flavor) and a 1/4 of another, so...into the kettle they go with a pot roast and some herbs and pearl onions! Wish me luck!

  1. That sounds like a great way to use the ends, whether it was a particularly enjoyable wine or not! As an aside -- do you get and/or read Cook's Illustrated? I have a sample issue and I'm considering keeping the subscription. It looks pretty cool!
