BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU

It’s Beaujolais Nouveau Time!

fruity quality of the grapes without extracting bitter tannins. The wine is bottled after 6 to 8 weeks, and then released to the world! The resulting wine is fresh, fruity, and low in tannins. Beaujolais Nouveau owes its easy drinkability to this special fermentation technique and to the Gamay grape which can be vinified into a very straightforward wine, but can also yield more complex and ageable wines such as those of the 10 crus of the Beaujolais at the top of the quality pyramid of the region. Beaujolais Nouveau is an extremely easy- to-drink red wine with high acidity and low tannins. It has a purply-pink hue and extremely fruity aromas of banana, strawberry and sometimes even bubblegum. Take a sip, and you’ll notice red berry flavours including raspberry, red cherry, red currant, and cranberries. A Beaujolais Nouveau will be silky smooth and medium-bodied with vibrant acidity. This is a wine intended for drinking immediately and is best served slightly chilled to bring the fruit flavours forward (30 minutes in the fridge is just about perfect). The classic pairing with Beaujolais Nouveau is some traditional French-style charcuterie and cheeses like Jambon de Bayonne or prosciutto, dry-cured sausages, light pâtés, and mild soft cheeses like brie, camembert or Muenster. It’s also a popular pairing with Thanksgiving or Christmas dinners due to its’ annual arrival date close to the holidays, its’ food-friendly nature and of course the celebratory nature of its release.

As the clock strikes midnight on the third Thursday of November, the new vintage of Beaujolais Nouveau will be released to the world. The much anticipated wine is released just weeks after the years’ grapes have been harvested. This special wine is from the Beaujolais wine region in eastern France located north of Lyon, where the wine originated about a century ago as a Festive drink produced by locals to celebrate the end of the harvest season. Today, there are dozens of vintners making this popular red; the Beaujolais region is home to about 4,000 vineyards which produce over 35 million bottles of Beaujolais Nouveau per year. Over the years, the hype and tradition surrounding the years’ new vintage have made the annual release of this much-loved wine a fun-filled and much anticipated event. Around the world, wine lovers wait for their first chance to taste it and to stock up on limited quantities. Once it’s gone, the world has to wait for another year, and each growing season brings distinct flavours and qualities to the wine. Not only is Beaujolais Nouveau great wine on its own merit, it’s also seen as an early indicator of the quality of the vintage. Beaujolais Nouveau starts with the hand-picking of Gamay grapes. The grapes are then loaded into large sealed tanks where they undergo a whole-berry fermentation starting out with uncrushed grapes. This technique preserves the fresh,

RESPONSIBLE HOSTING

Be a responsible host. You’ll help keep everyone safe by not drinking too much yourself. If you serve alcohol, it’s your responsibility to ensure that your guests get home safely, so plan ahead to call a cab or let guests stay in the spare bedroom. You may be held responsible if your guest is injured or harms another by driving home from your house impaired. People tend to drink more when they serve themselves, so if possible, designate a bartender. Keep a jigger next to the bottles to measure portions accurately. Monitor your guests’ drinking; some guests may not appear drunk even when they’ve already had too much to drink. Please visit liquorpei.com/responsibility/social-responsibility for more info & tips to help you plan and host an event that’s stress-free and enjoyable for you and your guests.

HOLIDAY BRUNCH

Hasselback Roasted Potatoes From page 18 Serves 6-8

1 1/2 pounds petite gold potatoes 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 1 tablespoon minced fresh chives 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley leaves 1 clove garlic, finely minced Salt and pepper to taste ½ cup sour cream Directions: Preheat your oven to 425F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a sharp knife, make crosswise cuts in each potato, about 1/8-inch apart, stopping about 1/4 inch from the bottom. Place the potatoes in a single layer, cut side up, onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place into oven and bake until tender and crisp, about 45 minutes. In a small bowl, combine remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil, chives, parsley and garlic; season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve potatoes immediately, drizzled with olive oil mixture and topped with a dollop of sour cream.

Classic Eggs Benedict From page 17 Makes 4

2 tsp white vinegar 8 slices of cooked ham or bacon 4 English muffins split in half 8 Large fresh farm eggs 1 Recipe hollandaise sauce (recipe below) Chopped fresh herbs to garnish

McManis Viognier 21.99 09501Z, 750 mL $

Directions: Brown the bacon in a medium skillet and toast the English muffins, cut sides up, on a baking sheet under the broiler. Set aside. Fill a large dutch oven 1/2 full of water. Add the white vinegar to the cooking water and bring to a simmer. Gently break 1 of the eggs into the water taking care not to break it. Repeat with remaining eggs. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Cook exactly 3 ½ minutes until the egg white is set and the yolk remains soft. Remove with a slotted spoon, allowing the egg to drain, and gently lay the cooked eggs on a plate lined with paper towel. To assemble the eggs benedict, lay a slice of ham or bacon on top of each muffin half, followed by a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper, then spoon the hollandaise sauce over the eggs. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs. 

Christmas Stollen From page 20 Serves 6-8

Classic Hollandaise Sauce 4 egg yolks 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice 1 Tbsp water

3/4 cup raisins 1/2 cup chopped mixed candied fruit 1/4 cup dried currants 3/4 cup apple juice 4-1/2 to 5 cups all-purpose flour 2 packages active dry yeast 1/4 cup sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup milk 1/2 butter, cut into cubes 2 large eggs 2 tablespoons grated orange zest 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest 1/2 teaspoon almond extract ½ cup slivered almonds GLAZE: 2 tbsp melted butter ½ cup white sugar

Stella Bella Chardonnay 32.99 B0096Z, 750 mL $

1/2 cup butter, melted Pinch cayenne pepper Pinch salt

Vigorously whisk the egg yolks, water and lemon juice together in a stainless steel bowl until the mixture is thickened and doubled in volume. Place the bowl over a saucepan containing barely simmering water (or use a double boiler- the water should not touch the bottom of the bowl). Continue to whisk rapidly. Be careful not to let the eggs get too hot or they will scramble. Cook, whisking constantly, until the sauce is thickened, pale and fluffy. Remove from heat and set the bowl on the countertop on top of a wet cloth. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter and continue to whisk constantly until the sauce is thickened and doubled in volume. Cover and place in a warm (not hot!) spot until ready to use for the eggs benedict. If the sauce gets too thick, whisk in a few drops of warm water before serving.

Orange and Pomegranate Salad From page 19 Serves 6-8

Directions: In a large bowl, soak the raisins, fruit and currants in apple juice for 1 hour; drain and set aside. In a large bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups of flour, yeast, sugar and salt. In a small saucepan, heat milk and butter to just above room temperature. Add to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Add the eggs, zest and extract; beat until smooth. Stir in the almond, fruit mixture and enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down; divide in half. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll each half into a 12x8-in. oval. Fold one of the long sides over to within 1 inch of the opposite side and press edges lightly to seal. Place on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 350° F for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes on wire racks, then brush with melted butter and dust generously with sugar.

Directions: In a large dutch oven, heat the butter over medium heat. Add everything except the stock and potatoes, then cook until lightly browned, stirring often for about 10 minutes. Add the broth and cook for another 5 minutes until almost all the liquid has evaporated. Stir in the mashed potatoes, remove from heat and let cool completely. While the meat mixture is cooling, preheat your oven to 425F. Lay each sheet of puff pastry on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Brush again with the beaten egg. Bake for 14-16 minutes, turning the pan halfway through cooking, until the tops of the rolls are a deep golden brown. Serve warm, with homemade cranberry sauce and mustard pickles.

Place the brie wheel in a small cast iron pan or brie baker and then spoon the walnut cranberry mixture overtop. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the sauce is bubbly and the brie is slightly bulging. Let cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm with crackers and crusty bread.

1/3 cup white sugar ½ cup salted butter 1 large egg ½ teaspoon almond extract (or vanilla extract)

2 cups salted butter 2 cups white sugar 2 cups dark chocolate chips 1 cup chopped toasted nuts (walnuts, pecans or almonds are all great) 1 tsp flaked sea salt such as Maldon Directions: Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray.

Allow to come to a boil, and cook until the mixture becomes a dark amber color and the temperature has reached 285 degrees F (137 degrees C). As soon as the toffee reaches the proper temperature, remove from heat and pour it out onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the chocolate over the top, and let it set for a minute or two to soften and melt. Spread the chocolate into a thin even layer, then sprinkle the nuts over the chocolate, and press in slightly. Lightly sprinkle with the salt. Place the toffee in the refrigerator to chill until completely set. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.
