Livingston Cooks: A GREAT RIESLING!

A GREAT RIESLING!

As you know, I'm a fan of German varietals. What can I say, I like the sweet whites! Anyway, here is an awesome Riesling I just stumbled on. Angel's Gate from Ontario.

This is super fruity and it has a nice acidity to balance out the sweetness. Notes of citrus jump out at you on the finish. This is a winner!!

WHY THE HELL AM I DOING THIS?

The purpose behind LIVINGSTON COOKS is not to provide my readers with recipes so much as to provide them with some of the techniques necessary to fine cooking. Cooking is something that, like all skills, requires time and practice to master. Learning how to cook recipe by recipe is like taking a trip across Canada and using side roads rather than taking the Trans Canada Highway. Yeah, you'll get there, but it'll take you a while.

So, a teaspoon of this and a cup of that you'll rarely find on LIVINGSTON COOKS. Unless I'm posting a baking recipe, that is. But I'll try to show you principles by simplification and will encourage you to think about cooking techniques rather than just following a list of ingredients.

All of the photography on LIVINGSTON COOKS is done by myself and the shots are of food that I have prepared as well. Some posts take a bit of time to put together but I try to add content very regularly.

I hope you enjoy my blog.

CHEERS!
