BEVERAGE PAIRINGS
I contacted Kara Flaherty, sommelier at Vicia and Winslow’s Table for an off-dry Riesling to pair. She recommended this gorgeous Teutonic from Oregon $20. This wine has the perfect tone of acid and sugar to cut through the spice and complexity of the dish and still stand tall. I love that you can pick up any of her personal selections at Winslow’s Table!
If you’d rather have a beer with stir fry, I suggest Rockwell Passing Clouds. The bright, orange notes in this beer is a wonderful pairing to any spicy dish, and certainly does so here.
