Easy holiday appetizers and wines

Come and join us for a casual night of food and wine pairing for your upcoming holiday entertainment. Executive Chef Jessica Smith will be providing YES members and guests with unusual and elegant appetizers that are "easy to make," can be made ahead of time, and are paired with affordable wines for your holiday parties. Attendees will also get their own cooking show since we have asked Jessica to do a cooking demonstration for at least one of
the recipes, as well as provide some helpful hints to make it a breeze to entertain during this busy season.

Here is a preview of the upcoming tasting to whet your appetite: The first dish will be Patatas Bravas with Bookwalter Riesling. The second appetizer will be Scallop Spring rolls with Green Curry Lime Dipping Sauce on a bed of Asian Slaw served with Jekel Gewurztraminer. Next we will try Duck au Poivre on Puff Pastry with King Estate Pinot Noir. Then we will taste Baked Fennel & Blue Cheese Dip with Focaccia with Seven Hills Cabernet Sauvignon. Finally we will end with Kaluha Truffle Triangles with Taylor Fladgate Port. If some of these wines are unavailable for the event, a like wine will be substituted.
Recipes, naturally, will be provided.
