The Bookie's Nook

Sanic adventure 2

?

also bookie! I had a question.

What is a good wine to cook with, but is in the more cheap range for a poor student like me?

Depends, keep like the red wine for dark meats and maybe as a sauce for white meats, white wines for fish, and either for vegetables/sides

Really just look up for flavor profiles, you dont want to use a dry wine with a meat that gets dry, you might want to go with something that has a fruitier flavor.

Don't used ones aged it oak barrels, or things like that, the simpler the wine the better.





MvF baby.....the places he goes, just have good food, I like when they do the Bizarre Foods America, but it's just Zimmern going around looking at local food places :)

Hey. You. The book. Get on Skype. Kthxbye.

[align=justify][font=verdana][color=green]For your Cooking competition choice - I can finally enter it.

Oh the topic of wines, don't go too cheap. Trust me on this. It can, and will, spoil the meal. I mean, if you can get a bottle for £5 down from £10, go for it. Merlot would be a good red, but don't you dare use Pinot Grigio as a white wine in cooking. It is too glorious for cooking - use anything else other than Chardonnay. Anything But Chardonnay - the ABC of wine.

Blaaaaah you call it good food but it looks all local restaurant,diners and stuff...I just think thats the greasiest and fattiest next to fast food. From what I've seen him eat anyway.

Chop,chop,chop


Aw man..tinypic is getting a lil ridiculous.

ehhhhhh?

Ah, no problem, I saw that you hadnt entered due to some of the themes (like sammiches) and I thought, being English and all, that curries would go well with you. :3

So with the cooking wines?
Merlot = good
Pinot = too good
Chardonnay = no

I think I might just get a sweeter one like a Vin Santo, as that was what I used when a cooking course in Italy. But dependant on the dish, I suppose...

When would you use wine in cooking though?

Does Bookie drink wine?

I don't like wine, I like beer and Whiskey/Scotch/Bourbon

I guess Whiskey counts as a classy drink.

Classy enough

I drink beer for the tastes and for casual things

Whiskey is to forget the troubles.

I just wanted to say "This thread is now deemed classy" is all =P

Suits. We all must wear suits now.

I'm not dressing up in penguin outfits >.>

but I'm sure you would look just handsome in it!

speaking of which, a joke:

If a Threesome is with three people
and a Twosome is with two people
does that make me....Handsome?

No way!

dooo eetttt

we can get matching suits...walk in to places and pretend we are important

Eheee who is who~

mii...;/n/; shane hates me now because I think man vs. food show, shows lotsa greasy fatty food. >.<
