Incidentally, Süd Tirol is very high on my list of places to travel. I like to imagine that it’s the perfect blend of Italian and Germanic culture: The cuisine of Italy, only the trains run on time. ?
I was initially very confused by this wine I’m drinking/cooking with. It’s a Trader Joe special, so I don’t know much about it, except it’s an Italian wine. With a German label. Wat? Turns out it’s from Süd Tirol, the German speaking region of Italy bordering Austria. ?????
Hmmm… this soup recipe only calls for 4 ounces of wine. Whatever shall I do with the rest of the bottle? ?
