LCBO Food & Drink Autumn 2021

INSIDE SCOOP

Weeknight wonders If you filled your fridge with market veggies and need some weeknight inspiration, look no further than the Food & Drink recipe archive. There’s the quick, inexpensive Daikon Radish Stir-Fry with Shiitakes, Carrot & Slivered Pork, flavoured with ginger, garlic and soy. You can make fish and two sides on one sheet pan with the colourful Mustard-Crumb Salmon with Sweet & Sour Cabbage and Roast Potatoes. Finally, on Meatless Mondays, try our Simple Spicy Soba Noodle Soup, a ramen-style bowl that can be pulled off in less than 20 minutes.

TRENDSPOTTING Barrel strength If you like generously oaked red wine, then there is a new style that’s right up your alley. Some wineries—mostly in Australia and California—are partially aging select reds in barrels that once contained spirits. A portion of Robert Mondavi Private Selection Rum Barrels Merlot (LCBO 13734, $19.95) is aged in used rum casks, lending flavours of honey, vanilla and chocolate. Jacob’s Creek Double Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon (LCBO 22197, $20.95) is finished in Irish whiskey barrels, which gives it notes of caramel and olive.
