The Perfect Comfort Food

Some times even your wine group needs a little comfort food. It doesn’t need to be a cold snowy day to have comfort food theme for your wine group gathering. There are not many foods that are more comforting than French Onion Soup.

Why not kick off your wine group by greeting your guest with a small ramekin of french onion soup and a nice glass of chardonnay? For me, the challenge with French Onion Soup is that I love it, but a bowl can be too filling. Hence, the idea of starting out your guests with a small ramekin works pretty well. My bet is that even when you encourage friends that they don’t need to finish it, by the end of the evening, everyone will have slurped the last drop and scraped the caramelized cheese.

Another favorite of mine is a dish I call Bistro Clams. It combines some of my favorite food groups, seafood, garlic/herb butter and bacon. You might need a piece of baguette to sponge up the last drops of butter and a glass of cabernet, but you can’t go wrong with this appetizer

Enjoy the comfort.
