Steve and Ale came over to dinner on Saturday and brought along a very handsome bottle of Amarone. As is often the case, it tasted nice on the occasion, but the day after we have finished the other half of the bottle, which accompanied some Tuscan sausages, mash and … yorkies. The wine has breathed and became phenomenal. Izzie requested yorkies, I obliged, in spite of the fact that I had to scrub the oven after cooking them.

Recipe from Good Food, 70 g of plain flour, combined well with 2 whole eggs, 100 ml of milk slowly added, seasoned with s&p, cooked in very hot oil for about 20 minutes, 230 degrees.

What a wonderful marriage that was, Amarone and yorkies. To be repeated!
