I've had this little tin funnel forever!
It belonged to my mother and I remember
always seeing it in her kitchen drawers.
We were having dinner at an Italian
restaurant and the waiter poured our
wine from the bottle into our glasses
using a small funnel like this to aerate
the wine. Aerating wine enhances the taste
and gives a smoother finish.
I had never seen a funnel used like this
before and I found it so charming. We
have always used an aerator on our wine
bottles. The kind that is also used as a
bottle stopper and it pores the wine.
But this is just too cute.
Do you have a small funnel? Find it and
give this a try.This funnel sits just
inside the wine glass. Slowly pour
the wine through.
Steak dinner and red wine.
A perfect combination.
Cheers!
Oh yes, a nice steak and red wine...doesn't get any better than that! I think my mother had a little funnel like that...long gone now, I'm sure although I kept several of her kitchen things.
