Vigneron's Diary — NZ Wine
Food and Wine Match - Block Eight Sauvignon Blanc and Bacon and Quail Egg Pie
The ideal weekend lunch! This is based on the Edmonds Cookery book recipe which we have altered slightly. We replace onion with caramelised onion and use peas. We don't use chutney and the main ingredient is 30 quail eggs! Not 6 hens eggs.
2 sheets pre-rolled flaky pastry
caramelized onion
1 cup of chopped bacon
½ cup of peas
30 quail eggs / 6 eggs
salt & pepper
milk
Use 1 sheet of pastry to line a greased 20cm square shallow cake tin. Sprinkle onion, bacon and peas over pastry. Break eggs evenly over, pricking the yolks so they run slightly....
Food and Wine match - Rosé with Blackened Salmon and Citrus Salad
Bellbird Spring Pinot Noir Rosè 2017
It seems summer is here and our Pinot Noir Rosè 2017 is too! A crisp and refreshing wine with notes of berry on the nose and a cranberry-like character. Full in the palate with good persistence. We think it will complement just about any warm weather occasion. Available through the website store.
