half pork on toast, peanut flips, hors d'oeuvres .... It shot us right through the head, as is the theme of the rally read
wine # 34 on the wine blog
the host of this time and simultaneous initiator Thomas Lippert. "wine and nibbles"
should it be fact today.
One thing is clear, you have to first think about the choice of food, the right wine is then found (almost) by himself. Thus, the first ideas were circling in the first act with a dip for vegetables and canapes. Finally we settled on something completely different: "green asparagus in crispy bacon and soft boiled eggs" ! A recipe that we last year in one of the many have discovered Jamie Oliver cookbooks and has often brought to the table because it is very easy, very tasty and
great fun at the same time. 
So we start first with the recipe
before we begin with the right wine. This is for 4 people, which can be varied depending on the hunger, the number of shoots per person of course.
ingredients
medium size 12 green asparagus spears, woody end of the cut 12 thin slices pancetta or streaky bacon
olive oil 4 large organic eggs (L or XL)
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
preparation the oven to 220 ° C preheat. Cover the asparagus with the bacon, but watch the heads let out. Nebeneinader in an ovenproof dish, sprinkle with a little olive oil and roast in oven for 10 minutes until the bacon is golden brown and crispy. Once the asparagus is in the oven, get the eggs that you cook soft in boiling lightly salted water for 5 minutes and then cold water. separated from each egg the lid and place in egg cups. Serve per person 3 shoots are dipped into the well with salt and pepper seasoned egg.
So far, really easy, right? missing So now only the corresponding wine. As already mentioned earlier, it usually makes little effort, you have found the food first to add the "right" wine companion. In our case, we have opted for one of our current favorite wine: the
Domaine Jean-Paul Schmitt
from Alsace! At this point in their own right just mentioned that it was a big challenge and not easy to accomplish task for us to close the gap with a range of wines from Alsace. We usually over-priced and are still only mediocre wines stumbled or big names that are still more expensive and not necessarily better. The winery Jean-Paul Schmitt we have, if it were possible, then, found more than perfect solution to this problem! Does it perhaps just a little bit of courage the client to attempt to approach the subject impartially "Alsace" and the new wine madness once more not to yield. These wines need to do their time in the bottle to be developed according to present perfect in the glass! Therefore, the youngest born in 2008, will be with us in the shelf comes to rest.
As a wine recommendation for our "snack" we have the "entry level" chosen. The Estate Jean-Paul Schmitt has a total of 8 hectares of vineyards, which are completely on the slopes of the situation, "Knight Mountain. M. Schmitt expand its vineyards since 2009 exclusively on certified organic and, in this year to biodynamic viticulture. The

are crystal clear and clean as the right words and say anything you on this dry, fruity and needs to know the typical, fresh apple aroma provided wine. The acid is finely balanced, and thus he becomes the perfect cutter for our egg buried in the asparagus.
