With the New Year upon us, this
is the time that many people set up a resolution to work toward over the course of the year.
Oftentimes, these resolve around food - or rather abstaining from certain foods or keeping a
strict diet - at Easy Food & Wine, we'd like to suggest a more fun type of food and
wine resolution! Here are ours for 2012:
Mike's New Year's Resolution: School
Up On Baking
Unlike cooking, baking's a pretty precise skill. You've got to have a higher level of technique
and follow all the measurements and recipes a lot more closely, unlike cooking where you
can do more to taste or by instinct. While baking's often associated with desserts, there's lots of
great applications for baking on the main course side of things. We plan on trying our
hand at some savory souffles, pie crusts and doughs - keep an eye out for these trends in our
recipes this year!
Amy's New Year Resolution: Just Taste Lots of Wines
Tasting regularly keeps the palate sharp and helps us find the gems in the market to
share with our readers. We make an effort to try a lot of wines, and are just going to make an
even bigger point about this over the course of this year. (Gosh, this is a great resolution!)
Attending wine tastings, trying wines at our local shops, and visiting wineries will all be on
the agenda throughout 2012. We even have a few Wine Country trips already planned
- Napa/Sonoma in February and it looks like France's Southern Rhone over the
summer. Look for all our reviews and tips on wines to buy in the Wine
Blog!
At this time of the year when many people focus on revising
things about their habits that they view as 'bad', don't forget to make resolutions to enjoy
the 'good' things in life as well - such as food and wine!
