Winter Solstice Recipes
Enjoy the longest night of the year this week by lingering over a cozy supper: sage-infused buttered noodles topped with our rustic tomato-squash sauce, fresh pumpernickel bread and pickled mushrooms, plus a beautiful Washington Syrah and a crisp radicchio salad tossed with housemade Champagne-orange vinaigrette. A bounty of seasonal produce, including plump cranberries, celeriac and cauliflower, is also on hand to incorporate into this leisurely and luscious meal.
Here are a few recipe ideas for the week:
Sage-Infused Butter
The perfect finishing touch for al dente pasta!
Radicchio Salad with Champagne-Orange Vinaigrette
Pairing crisp radicchio and a light citrus vinaigrette, this salad is incredibly refreshing.
Celeriac Mash
This simple method from Jamie Oliver allows celeriac to shine. Often referred to as celery root, the winter vegetable is a wonderful substitute for potatoes in recipes.
Whole-Roasted Cauliflower
This dish can’t be beat for presentation, served whole and drizzled with olive oil and sea salt.
Oven-Dried Cranberry and Orange-Peel Salt
This unique flavored salt is wonderful seasoning for pork or poultry (and makes a great holiday gift, too!).
