Drink This Now: Lambrusco

(Influencing your alcohol run this evening)

"Aside from its unique qualities, Lambrusco has an interesting history. Native of Emilia-Romagna, the northern/central province of Italy, just above Tuscany, for centuries Lambrusco was a dry, sparkling red wine that was a natural pairing to local cuisines. While there are variations in sweetness and hue, based on local tastes, terroirs, and dispositions, Lambrusco could generally be counted upon for a certain degree of reliable integrity."

We enjoyed a magical culinary evening at Macchialina in Miami with edible South Florida celebrating Pecorino Romano with industry friends! This multi-course Pecorino Romano PDO dinner from executive chef Michael Pirolo and sous-chef Trevor Zwaan paired with an exquisite wine selection from Jacqueline Pirolo.

The inimitable sheep’s milk cheese turned up atop crunchy croutons in gigante beans in brodo; slivered in insalata tricolore with pistachio and preserved lemon vinaigrette. Pecorino Romano PDO added creamy richness to the classic pasta cacio e pepe and melted atop Tiny Farms baked eggplant served with succulent lamb chops. To cap off the evening, a luxurious gelato, flavored with fig jam and flecked with slivers of Pecorino Romano PDO, complemented perfectly with Furlani Amaro, bringing natural herbs, botanicals, spices and fruits to wrap up the experience. We are grateful to Macchialina and their team, Gretchen and Edible South Florida, and of course our star (ingredient) of the evening: Pecorino Romano PDO.

✨ Throwback to an unforgettable dinner in partnership with Edible Austin at Poeta in Austin! 🍽️ We indulged in a dreamy five-course menu featuring Pecorino Romano delights, from lamb ragu arancini with dates and Pecorino crema to milk-braised pork with walnut salsa verde and Pecorino frico. Chef Ian Thurwachter truly outdid himself! And let’s not forget the sweet finish of honey cake and Pecorino gelato. There’s something special about Pecorino Romano that brings everyone together at the table. ❤️

For our Holiday Issue (out now), we featured Victoria Granof's book, “Sicily, My Sweet: Love Notes to an Island, with Recipes for Cakes, Cookies, Puddings, and Preserves”, in our Hot Plate Department.

https://www.ediblemanhattan.com/recipes/rosolio-alla-rosa-rose-petal-liqueur/

Pictured here: Rosolio Alla Rosa (Rose-Petal Liqueur)

“You may have noticed Sicilians’ fondness for floral essences—rose, orange-blossom, jasmine—and for other things florid, like language, architecture, and dreams. Rose water (definitely a legacy of the Saracens) has an easy affinity for almonds and pistachios and finds its way into cakes, ices, and beverages across the island. Here we have rosolio, a very traditional cordial made with rose petals. The name rosolio is thought to derive from ros (rose) + olio (oil) for its viscosity. But then again, there are rosolios of many flavors that have nothing at all to do with roses, so my own common-sense belief is that rosolio is to liqueurs what Kleenex is to tissues or Xerox is to photocopies. What I do know for sure is that rosolio is made at home and is offered to guests as a digestivo (digestive) and a sign of hospitality. To add an optional red tint to this, you can add a teaspoon of cochineal, the tiny little insects that have been the source of a brilliant-scarlet dye since long before Spanish galleons brought them from the New World in the 16th century. Cochineal is food-safe and is readily available online.”

This summer, when The New York Times restaurant critic Pete Wells announced that he was hanging up his fork, a shudder was felt by a certain type of diner: those who looked to Wells’ columns not only for which hot new place had the heat but for a certain mature, sustained criticism ever more difficult to locate. For 12 years, in a city where dining is at once hallowed, blood sport, fe**sh, and way of life—Wells has established not only a voice of experience, but also one of insight, incisiveness, and even poetry. As he leaves his role behind, he shares his favorite dustup, his favorite advice, and his favorite burger.
