Remember to Combine Your Greens
Don't forget that the deadline for submissions to July's episode of Combinations is coming up on July 30. This month, I'm asking you to combine your greens:
Your mission is to wear both an Iron Chef hat and Sommelier tastevin. Create a dinner menu/plate using any 3 of the following fresh herbs: parsley, cilantro, thyme, rosemary, tarragon, chives, basil...or any other fresh green herb.
Now, whatever else you add to the dish is up to you. However, extra bonus points are awarded for purchasing all ingredients from a green market (or your own personal garden). Once, you've created the entree, task #2 is to select a complimentary wine.
Katie P. stimulated the creative side of Combos by suggesting a Kaffir Lime Leaf-based dish + white Bordeaux.
Andrew of Spittoon gets the gold star for early submission with his Prawns & fresh herb dip + Gavi (Italian white wine).
A great combo, no? Now go pick some herbs and start combining!
