Book Description

More than 100 fresh, fast and uncomplicated recipes to enjoy with Zinfandel. Recipes are easy to follow, results are spectacular, and every morsel is created to savor with California's Heritage Wine or any flavorful red wine. Each dish, whether a streamlined old favorite or a tempting new delight, has been home kitchen tested against all styles of Zinfandel. An "All About Zin" chapter gives an overview of Zinfandel's fascinating history.

Editorial Reviews

From Scientific American

Move over Cab, Merlot, Pinot. This is a gustatory celebration of California's own wine, the hearty Zin. ... The legendary vine was a favorite of pioneers for its easy growing habits and by 1876 it was already winning awards in Europe. Now it is California's "heritage" wine. And this book does it honor. Splendid volume tastefully prepared.

Review

Zinfandel and food go hand-in-hand, and the authors of this book have done a fantastic job in seducing the reader into wanting to cook with a bottle of Zinfandel close at hand. I thoroughly enjoyed the recipes: some down home and traditional, others a welcome surprise to a new way to pair food and Zin. The wine history and lore add spice to the recipes,making this book a wonderful addition to my collection. -- Jesse Cool, restaurateur, chef, author of "Tomatoes: A Country Garden Cookbook"

This review is from: Zinfandel Cookbook, Food To Go With California's Heritage Wine (Paperback)
I bought this book in 1994 after a trip to the Napa Valley. Zin is one of our favorite wines and this book is filled with wonderful, sound recipes that are great with Zin or by themselves. I've used other wines in some of the recipes and been equally happy with the results.

It's a great book!
