The Fundamentals of being well fed...
In this back to school edition, we’re taking all of our readers back to the fundamentals of living a well fed and sustainable life. From Fall gardening techniques with Kelly, to picking a great wine, we’ve got you covered. We’re going back to the basics and rebuilding the pyramids at the same time! Jen Drey breaks down the new food group guidlines and Sabina Cushing gives us a wealth of information on how to properly recycle, here in Savannah. It’s been almost a year since our first issue and it was in that very first issue, in half black and white, that we released our A to Z guide on what not to feed your pet.We have decided to reprint this essential guide for all our pet loving readers out there. Speaking of pets, Well FED is partnering with the Humane Society for the next couple months to help them raise money and meet their goal of getting 1,000 pets adopted by October 31st. We hope that you all join us in this endeavor and spread the word! We also invite you to come out to several fundraising events taking place. See the Well FED Pet section, starting on page 24 to learn more and also be sure to visit our website: www.wellfedsavannah.com, then click on the Community tab, to stay up to date on more local events as they arise.

fallgardening If your garden looks anything like mine,
you’ll see very tired tomato plants, squash, pole beans, watermelon and cucumber vines starting to die back.The peppers and eggplants are still cranking it out, there’s an overwhelming amount of Malabar spinach and amaranth greens, and the second crops of okra and squash are just now ready to pick. Also the perennial crops of blackberry and strawberry could use some attention. This season is a busier time of year than spring with perennial maintenance. There’s summer clean-out, summer succession planting and fall/winter planting. So let’s organize our thoughts and take it step by step. Step one is to assess your remaining summer garden. Add to the compost bin what is no longer producing. Any summer plants that look like they’d revive with a little attention, side dress or soil drench with liquid fertilizer - my cucumbers, eggplants, peppers and squash fall into this category. Second step- look at the empty spaces that have opened up in your garden; decide if you want another round of summer veggies, or if you want to start your fall and winter plantings instead. You can go either way this time of year. If replanting summer crops, make sure they are harvestable within the next 8-10 weeks. Plant your succession crop in spots that previously grew an entirely different family of plants. Thirdly- know our climate. Officially, our first frost date is around November 15th , but it’s often later with the climate changing. Our climate zone has changed from a solid 8 when I moved here 32 years ago, to 8b. Now most of the eastern side of Savannah is a 9 which has a frost date of December 1st. Look at the summer veggie seed packs and make sure the labeled “days-tomaturity” give you time to harvest a crop before the cold nights make the blossoms drop before fruit set. If planting seedlings, you don’t need to worry as much about length of growing season since you’ll have a 4-6 week start already.
Twyla at Victory Feed and Seed has seedlings for both summer and fall plants, as well as
organic seeds and amendments. I recommend direct seeding the following fast growing crops: green beans, cucumber, squash, and also carrots and beets, not because they’re fast, but because they can take cold weather. Plant successions of arugula, radish and lettuce as they are both fast growing and cold weather tolerant. Buy seedlings of tomato, peppers, and any summer crop you want to get a head-start with. If you don’t replant a summer crop, cool weather crops can be started inground or in trays now to be planted out later when summer crops are cleared out. Alternatively, seed and feed stores will be carrying fall/winter seedlings through November or so. Seed-potatoes can be laid on trays in cool dark places to grow their “eyes” out. They can be planted in October, either in-ground, straw bales, paper feed bags, mulch piles. This could be an article in itself. Perennial foods such as berries and fruits have flourished in my garden this year. The strawberries have taken over one corner of the garden, spilling out everywhere. The mamma plants need to be thinned and cut back to the crowns, fertilized and mulched. The daughters (runners) will be thinned and transplanted to new quarters. The mammas are good for three years of productivity, after that they get pulled and composted. Their bed will be rotated into production with another crop, and new beds made for the daughters they produced each year. It’s a good idea to make a marker with the date or keep a journal when you plant the runners. In this way you’ll know when it’s time to rotate that bed to another crop and by your third year, you’ll always have three generations of strawberries. The blooms should be pinched off the one year old bed which allows them to bloom and produce with the highest yield the second year. After the third year of harvest they should be tilled or composted. Don’t plant strawberries in the same beds where they’ve grown previously and keep them well apart from the solanacea family (tomatoes, peppers, potatoes) as they share many of the same diseases. Here in the Deep South, fall is a great time to establish a strawberry bed. Find a friend who has a bed and I’ll bet you can get all the free runners you care to plant.
My thornless blackberry canes must be six to eight feet long! Sure wish I’d tended to them right after harvest, but alas, too many competing things to be tended to. The old canes of the blackberry can be cut out and prune back the long canes of this year’s growth to 6 side shoots per cane. Pruning out the old canes keeps productivity high and disease opportunities low, allowing new growth to produce berries next spring. Fruit trees are either pruned right after harvest or while still dormant in the spring. The best time to plant trees is in the fall. They will have time to acclimate to their new environment before the dormancy of winter, yet not have to endure the heat and drought of summer. Also, winter is the time that trees put energy into building root structure, so they’ll be better established by the time harsh summer conditions come around. Winter time is the fruiting season for citrus. When planting pinch off most or all of the buds the first year allowing more energy to go into root development. This helps them get better established in their first year in the ground. So don your sunhat, use sunscreen, drink plenty of water and get to work! There’s the ease of the winter garden ahead- weeds grow slow, the sun is a welcome companion and watering is less of a concern. And please continue to enjoy and share the harvest of your labor!

RECYCLE Savannah These days, ecological awareness is no longer a fashion choice or lifestyle preference, but an urgent demand upon every one of us to step it up and get with the program. As the seconds tick by, the call to arms to become better stewards of our Earth is especially dire: expensive landfills are filling up at alarming rates, as most of us are still “tossing out” the “garbage” without a second thought. And contrary to popular belief, it is never too late. But this behavior must drastically change within each of us, immediately. Quite simply because:
THIS IS NOT OK.
By S. Cushing
Even though the City of Savannah started its residential curbside recycling pick-up service in 2009, it seems that most residents are still perplexed as to exactly what goes in the black landfill bin, and what is considered a “recyclable”. (If you don’t already have a bin with a yellow lid, request (or demand) one from your landlord, or contact the city sanitation department at 651-6579). Unfortunately, residents of the rest of Chatham Co. and businesses statewide still have much more limited options.While the city may be able to arrange recycle pick-up for SOME businesses from the few alleyways that house community dumpsters around town, the more plausible way to deal with commercial waste is to hire a private collector to pick up the recyclables, or, drive it (already separated, residential only) to participating drop-off locations (and not all sites collect the same materials). Even though figuring out the best way to ultimately deal with all of your waste responsibly may take a bit of research at first, it is easy to get started!
• • •
The following items are accepted at various drop-off locations, are potentially re-usable, or really should be diverted elsewhere. (See our online recycling resource list on our facebook page or www.wellfedsavannah.com)
In any case, these items should not - or need not - go into the landfill: • • • • • • • • •
wood yardwaste any batteries CFL lightbulbs cans of paint or other hazardous liquids/ chemicals any reusable household items food scraps cooking oil paper milk/juice cartons
• • • • • • • • • •
all plastics #1-7 plastic bags (marked with a number) Styrofoam scrap metal clothing/shoes/ eyeglasses automotive parts/tires/ oil electronics/computers/ appliances/cords cell phones ink cartridges furniture
Below is a list of what goes into our curbside recycle bin (YELLOW LID): clean glass bottles and jars (without lids) • paper, newspaper, catalogs, paperback books clean hard plastic bottles/containers (Must be • dry cardboard boxes (flattened) numbered 1-7) * • dry paperboard/pasteboard (like cereal boxes) dry mixed paper including junk mail, computer • empty metal cans, any kind
Take care before tossing your recyclables into that bin though; TOO MANY CONTAMINANTS CAN SPOIL THE WHOLE EFFORT. Empty and rinse out all containers! Food scraps, plastic bags, yard waste, or anything else not on the bin list must NOT go into it.

BUYER BEWARE: At this time, a glut for plastics #3-7 is likely, as there is not a good market for re-purposing these materials in this region yet. The conscientious consumer is advised simply to avoid purchasing these types of plastics in general, until further notice.
Researching how each of these special needs items can be processed may require a little online research for your specific area. Here are some examples: Food waste: Probably one of the biggest contributors to greenhouse gasses from landfill sites, food scraps should be composted, period. Also, compostable paper and other natural materials. Contact Savannah Urban Garden Alliance for more info on how to do this. Yard waste: This is to be put in large brown paper yard waste bags only (no plastic) and will be picked up curbside on the same day as your regular trash. (See your city’s web page for details). Paint: This is a tough one if you don’t want to wait for Earth Day drop-off once a year…some local paint business may take old paint for recycling, and The Restore on Victory Drive/Habitat For Humanity takes only unopened cans of paint. Perhaps donating leftovers to a school project, or using it up yourself is the best idea! Empy [latex] paint cans can be taken to participating drop-off locations. Tires: Not only is it hazardous to dump your old tires in the landfill, it’s illegal. For a small fee your responsible neighborhood auto shop will take them. StyrofoaM: Virtually nonrecyclable and toxic. Most Publix Markets have an outside bin for clean foam food trays and egg cartons; but further research is needed to determine how they are ultimately processed, and if they would take other types of foam. Personally, I just say “no” to purchasing Styrofoam, and let my local businesses know that I won’t use it!

Plastic shopping bags (#2s): These nefarious little menaces are a total strain on our ecosystem, polluting waterways and harming marine life, and literally choking up the landfills, as it is estimated that almost all of the hundreds of thousands of plastic bags used PER SECOND in the US are ultimately discarded. Many cities are banning them altogether. Publix Markets do have a bin for recycling those # 2 bags, but better yet? Don’t accept plastic bags at all. Bring your own, or, if you must, choose paper. E l e c t r o n i c s / a pp l i a n c e s / batteries: There are many drop off opportunities for all things electric, including cords and DVDs too.The Resource Conservation Education Center on Eisenhower Dr. (near Waters Ave.) for one, takes computers, cords, microwaves, TVs, batteries, cell phones, printer cartridges and eyeglasses. Just separate them, and drive through. It couldn’t be easier. (There is a small fee for some of the larger items like big screen TVs). Stores like Office Depot and Radio Shack usually take things like batteries and printer ink cartridges. Office Depot even has a program which takes your discarded electronics for a small fee. Furniture, Books or ANY stilluseable items: Goodwill it! This is one of the best places for your unwanteds. Any time you head to the Southside, bring a box of your old stuff (that is still usable) and drop it off to the Goodwill on Sallie Mood Dr., or the Humane Society across the street. Make your trash someone else’s treasure! (And, it’s a write off). Compact fluorescent lightbulbs: Home Depot has a drop box for these (just place unbroken into a plastic bag). These, like batteries, are considered a hazardous material and are not to be put into the trash. Alas, the rest of our waste often end up as landfill, but even this doesn’t have to! Items like mirrors, window glass, broken glass, ceramics, drinkware, soft unmarked plastic (like cellophane), plastic lids, and other difficult items could always be re-used in other creative ways, and there are occasional markets for odd materials, so be creative and research it!

Take the Time to Feed Kids Right By Dr. Tassie Hargrove
As a parent, you are probably like me. Getting ready for school, shopping for book bags, school uniforms and lunch boxes. As a doctor, I know how important a nutritious breakfast and lunch is to our kids. But I still struggle like every other parent to find balance between real foods and convenience foods for my kids and family.
Most American breakfasts are centered on carbohydrates like cereal, grits, toast or oatmeal (or those darn Pop Tarts!) These may be great for quick energy, but if they are not paired with a protein like eggs, turkey bacon, yogurt or cheese, our kids will be drained and zoned before they even get off the bus.
We truly are what we eat. The professional surfer Laird Hamilton once said, “You eat potato chips, you’re going to perform like a potato chip.” How do we expect our kids to perform at their best, pay attention, learn, sit still when they eat Pop Tarts for breakfast?
But let’s get real.Who has time to cook a full breakfast AND pack book bags, walk the dog, make lunches, pack snacks, get the kids to school and yourself to work on time?!
Even when we think we’re doing right by our kids, we still need to pay close attention. Case and point: check the sugar grams in a “healthy cereal bar” or a package of instant maple oatmeal—it’s as much as cookies or candy!
My solution was to start my daughter on smoothies when she was really young. She was not a great eater, and I found that I could feed her a fruit smoothie packed with protein, vitamins, minerals and sometimes even immune boosters. And she thought she was getting a treat! Home run! (Find my smoothie recipe at hhcofsavannah.com.) By now we are on to the mid-morning. The kids have been engaging their brains for a couple of hours (we hope.) Brains use a surprising amount of glucose (blood sugar), and some of my kids’ teachers allow a morning snack. Again, I try to pack protein, like string cheese, nuts or nut butters. I have looked for healthy granola bars—but when the sugar grams are higher than the protein, I pretty much consider it a candy bar. When I am on my game, I make my own homemade protein/granola bars (this recipe can also be found at hhcofsavannah.com.)
FYI: Cutters Point coffeeshop in Sandfly has an oatmeal/peanut butter/raisin ball that is a nice alternative to candy masking as granola bars. I really like them, and I’ve noticed some mothers at the swim meets doling out their own homemade versions. The kids were eating them up!
Now for lunch! Should our kids buy lunch or bring lunch from home? As a nutritionist, I was very interested in what they were serving at my kids’ public elementary school. My first impression was a good one: The lunch was balanced with protein, carbs, fruit and milk. However, there were only two workers in the whole cafeteria, who basically just reheated these meals with little to no preparation. This means the food was prepared long before it ended up on the kids’ plates. These processed foods are usually less susceptible to early spoilage than fresh food, but they have little nutritional benefit and are typically filled with additives and preservatives. Far better for our growing kids are lunches comprised of whole foods—foods that are unprocessed and unrefined. Why do we want whole foods instead of processed foods? Because whole foods contain nutrients that are vital for our health like enzymes, fiber, vitamins, minerals, etc. and most processed foods do not. They’re basically just empty calories.
“... Make sure all kids have access to healthy, whole foods” I mostly pack my kids lunches. I strive to pack whole, healthy foods that will be tasty at noon without being heated. Not always easy. Do they eat it all and thank me for it? No, not always. Do I keep trying because their future and current health depends on it? Yes! We all want what is best for our kids, I don’t care who you are or what country you live in. We can all win if we can work to help our local schools partner with local farmers to make sure all kids have access to healthy, whole foods. As a doctor and as a mother, I am happy to share what I have found works for me, my family and my patients. If you have any “home run” ideas or suggestions please feel free to post them on our Facebook site. Have a great school year!

The Pyramid Goes Practical By Jennifer L. Drey
M
aybe it was the less-thanstraight-forward design that asked us to convert a triangular chart into a day’s worth of eating. Or, maybe after seeing some version of it for nearly two decades, we had learned to look right past it. Perhaps many of us had just lost faith in it given the obesity epidemic that surrounds us. Whatever it was, it had become pretty clear that the federal government’s former food group symbol, commonly referred to as “the food pyramid,” was not curbing many people’s appetites for the wrong types of foods. The government’s former pyramid-style food guidelines needed a fresh look. The result was the new MyPlate food group symbol launched in June, now complete with a series of interactive online tools.
The New Food Group Symbol, MyPlate Divided into 5 sections: Fruits, Vegetables, Protein, Grains, and Dairy.
The more aesthetically pleasing MyPlate provides a simple image of, rather obviously, a plate.The plate is divided into four labeled sections—vegetables, fruits, grains and protein. It also has a spot above the plate for dairy. The graphic clearly indicates that vegetables should be the major component of every meal. Together, vegetables and fruits make up half of the plate, while grains and proteins make up the other half of the plate in nearly equal portions. The simplified appearance allows users to look at their food choices one meal at a time, which is hopefully less daunting than the full day of eating that the former food pyramids tried to pack into one chart. Catherine Compton, a nutritional coach at West Rehab & Sports Medicine in Savannah, said about the new graphic:
Beyond having a simplified appearance, MyPlate also updates some of the information included on the former pyramid. One subtle change is that the names of the groups were modified to be less limiting. The former “milk group” is now the “dairy group,” and the former “meat and beans group” is now the “protein group.”
“There could be definite improvements, but overall [MyPlate] sends a good message and is easy to quickly visualize and duplicate any time you sit down for a meal that you need to include all of the food groups represented,”
Overall, the latest advice is a huge improvement over the pyramid, particularly the added emphasis on vegetables and fruits, Compton said. However, the MyPlate graphic is merely an icon and does not include any specifics on the federal government’s recommended servings per day for each of the food categories. The underlying goal is that the graphic will compel users to create a healthy plate and then seek more information on how to do that, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture statement released when the program launched.

1992 (above left) ~ Former Food Group Symbols~ 2005 (above right) That’s where the interactive tools on the USDA’s MyPlate webpage (www.choosemyplate.gov) come in. The website allows users to create a personalized food plan based on their age, sex, height, weight and level of physical activity. Using the personal information provided, the site will present the user with specific intake amounts to try to achieve in each food group. Grains and protein amounts are provided in ounces, while the fruit, vegetable and dairy totals are given in cups. Specific tips for increasing consumption are offered for each food category. To create a personalized plan, go to www. choosemyplate.gov and click “Interactive Tools,” which is in the top column on the left. The first choice on the next page is “Daily Food Plan.” Digging a little deeper by clicking on the “Food Groups” link on the MyPlate website also leads to definitions for each food group, which have been updated to include some particularly useful information, Compton said. For example, the protein group now highlights seafood and beans as good sources of protein. At the same time, Compton believes the information surrounding MyPlate could be more comprehensive. For one thing, the graphic and related information fail to advise users to avoid high-mercury and over-fished varieties of seafood. There’s also no mention of the potential health benefits of grass-fed meat or organic produce. Nor does the information discuss Omega 3’s, which are the “good” fats, she noted. The homepage of the website does provide tips that urge users to make at least half of their grains be whole grains and to switch to fat-free or low-fat milk. It also suggests choosing lower-sodium foods and drinking water instead of sugary drinks.
The advice—as well as all of the information included on the MyPlate icon itself— stems from the basic messages included in the federal government’s 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, launched in January of this year. Over the next few years, the USDA will work with First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move! Initiative and public and private partners to promote MyPlate its related online resources, the agency said in June. Still, MyPlate relies on its users taking a proactive approach to get the full benefits. Will it work? Will consumers seek out the additional information necessary to maximize MyPlate? It’s definitely too early to know. But it is good to see that the tools are out there, free of charge, for those who choose to use them. In addition to the USDA’s new website, Compton writes a local blog at wellsavannah.com that also provides nutritional advice.

left lying on the coffee table. Yet, we still do our best everyday to ensure their safety, happiness, and general well-being. In recent issues of Well FED we have encouraged supplementing your pet’s everyday diet with some healthy fresh ingredients such as yogurt, fruits, and veggies. Be creative when it comes to incorporating these fresh ingredients into your pet’s diet such as making frozen “puppy pops” with fresh fruit or sprinkling pieces of tasty veggies to your pet’s dry food, but remember that everything that is generally good for human diets is not always good for your dog or cat. This list of things NOT to feed our pet was published in the very first issue of Well FED but it is still as important today as it was then. To assist you in your endeavors to supplement your pet’s diet with fresh foods, tear out this list of things NOT to feed your pet and post it on your fridge, or print it from the online version at wellfedsavannah.com. continued on next page

Crystal Cook and Sandy Pollock make a mean Chicken Pot Pie, elevating the classic recipe with white wine and fresh tarragon. Their recipe won them such a following in Texas that Bobby Flay took notice and challenged them to a Throwdown. It turns out that the Casserole Queens, as the duo is known, are much more than one-hit wonders of the one-dish dinner. They have built an entire business around revamping the ultimate quick-fix dinner for modern tastes. In The Casserole Queens Cookbook, they share their fresh, updated, from-scratch recipes for traditional dishes. Tuna Noodle is brought up a notch with a homemade cream sauce and a kick of cayenne pepper; Halibut Enchiladas with Salsa Verde are surprisingly light and vibrant; Mandarin Meatloaf has a sweet orange flavor that recharges a beloved weeknight staple. There are home-style desserts, like Gooey Apple Butter Cake, and great brunch dishes, such as Frenchy Toast Casserole. The Queens have thought of everything, providing advice on scaling and freezing casseroles so that anyone can stock the freezer with go-to dinners.
An excerpt with recipe from The Casserole Queens Cookbook: To us, casseroles represent more than just a delicious and nutritious meal for the family. The also represent a way of life – part of the retro chic brand that defines the Casserole Queens as a business and the two of us as individuals. When we think of the quintessential 1950s homemaker, we have to chuckle. Hurry, ladies! Rush and fluff the pillows, prepare his favorite drink, straighten your hair, and quiet down the kids – your husband is coming home from a hard day at work! Oh, how times have changed. Homemakers may be men or women, and few of us would seek advice on creating a comfortable environment for our spouse. And yet the kitchen remains an important place in many of our lives, not because we are expected to be there but because it is where we can show our devotion to the ones we love most. When you choose to express yourself through the dishes you cook, it’s about more than the ingredients. It’s about passion, presentation, creation, and pleasing the senses. (Mmmm, smell that? That’s my cookin’!) Reprinted with permission from The Casserole Queens Cookbook by Crystal Cook & Sandy Pollock, copyright © 2011.

Quick Tips to Cut Calories If a recipe calls for a canned fruit in heavy syrup, forget the can and substitute the real thing. If the fruit happens not to be in season, opt for a canned version in its natural juices. So maybe your mom was right when she told you to eat more veggies. Simply decrease the meat and increase the vegetables called for in the recipe. Or, if you are feeling adventurous, there are a lot of healthful soy-based meat alternatives. Seriously, we’ve tried them and they do a fine job standing in for the real deal!
Foods that are white in color are usually hiding a dirty secret: empty carbs. Choose whole-grain versions of pasta and bread. Wheat flour over white flour. Substitute white rice with brown rice, wild rice, bulgar, or pearl barley. When baking your favorite sweets, substitute applesauce or prune puree for half the butter, shortening or oil called for in the recipe. It works really well. But as we mentioned, it might take a few tries to get it just right!
World’s Greatest Chicken Pot P ie MAKES 8 SERVINGS 2 Tbs. unsalted butter 1 (3 lb.) roasted chicken, boned and shredded 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper 2 medium shallots, thinly sliced 3 Tbs. all-purpose flour 2 tsp. salt 1 tsp. dried tarragon, crushed 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 cups whole milk 1 cup heavy cream 1/3 cup dry white wine 1 1/2 cups fresh peas, blanched 1 1/2 cups carrots, diced and blanched 2 russet potatoes, diced and blanched 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed Egg wash (lightly whisk together 1 whole egg and 1 tsp. water) 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. 2. In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the chicken, bell pepper, and shallots, and cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, salt, tarragon, and black pepper. Add the milk and cream, and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and bubbly, about 10 minutes. Add the wine, peas, carrots, and potatoes and stir until heated thoroughly, about 5 minutes. 3. Transfer the hot chicken mixture to a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish. Place the puff pastry over the top of the casserole dish. Brush the edges of the puff pastry with the egg wash and press against the side of the casserole dish, then cut slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape. Brush the top of the puff pastry with egg wash—this will help the puff pastry brown evenly. Bake for about 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Serve immediately.
Variations:
Make individual pot pies! Portion out the filling into 6-ounce ramekins. Top each ramekin with some puff pastry and freeze. Cook at 425°F for 20 minutes or until puff pastry is golden brown. So cute! Use store-bought pie dough and make empanadas! Using a 3-inch circle pastry cutter, cut 12 circles out of the dough. Place a large spoonful of filling on one half of each circle. Brush the edge of the pastry with egg wash, then fold in half to make a half-moon shape. Press the edges together firmly and crimp with a fork. Put the empanada on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes or until golden brown.

FALL BACK With
the
Classics
By Jason Restivo
The heinous heat of summer seems to have broken as we head toward the heavenly fall months. Though the season marks a march towards the bleakness of winter, there’s always a sense of newness as school begins once again, as does Savannah’s favorite time of year for picnics and outdoor concerts. It’s a perfect time to recap the basics of wine in order to raise our glasses to another glorious autumn. If you’re unfamiliar with wine, it can seem an intimidating task to choose a bottle to accompany a meal or sip on the back porch. However, there are only a few simple lessons you need to make purchasing wine an approachable and enjoyable activity. School is now in session! Most of you know that wine usually falls into the categories of white and red (there are a few “pink” varieties but let us not speak of them.) Each is further broken down into the type of grape used for its production. I find the following to be the most reliably excellent varieties:
R eds :
Pinot Noir Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah
W hites :
Riesling Sauvignon Blanc Chardonnay
These magical six can be your new best friends. Wine is also categorized by its “body,” determined on a “light” to “heavy” scale. It’s how the wine feels against your tongue and guides what food will pair best with the varietal. Lighter styles of wine, such as Riesling (white) and Pinot Noir (red) generally have a brightly acidic quality, reminiscent of the sparkly
tartness of lemons and white grapefruits. Its weight is sometimes compared to that of nonfat milk—light and smooth without too much to complicate the palate. Light wines are perfect to serve every day with simple meals, from a brunch of shrimp and grits to a late supper stir-fried vegetables over quinoa. Salads, steamed fish and fresh fruit also go well with these. Medium styles of wine, which include Sauvignon Blanc (white) and Cabernet (red), are a bit more substantial. The acids have a slightly softer feeling, like a pink grapefruit—bolder, a little sweeter. Think of it as the 2% milk option. Medium-bodied wine tend to contain tannins, even the white varieties when aged in oak barrels. These varietals tend to shine with the styles of cooking you find here in the south—any meat that’s braised, smoked or fried. A medium-bodied wine will round out a meal of fried or grilled chicken, baked potatoes, even mac n’ cheese. It’s time to get heavy. Chardonnay (white) and Syrah (red) generally have soft to no acids and firm tannins that give these wines a pleasant “buzzy” sensation on the tongue. Some say the tannins are like having oak splinters on your back palate—in a pleasant way! This is the heavy cream of wine—there’s a tangible sensation of the wine in the mouth. The heavier the wine, the richer the food: The rich sauces of French cooking, red meat with a demiglace and creamy cheeses pair best with a full-bodied wine that can stand up to strong flavors Speaking of pairing wine, don’t let it freak you out. While there are some general rules regarding flavors, the wine police won’t come after you for sipping a Syrah with sea bass. It’s really about what you like. I give you permission to experiment and be spontaneous! While it’s traditional to serve whites cold and reds at room temperature, try icing a red for 15 minutes when it’s hot outside;
this process not only feels good against the heat, but slightly masks any toughness. On the flip side, having your white wines at room temperature can bring out the ripeness of fruit and aromatics. As far as impressing your friends with how much you spend, you should know that wine doesn’t have to be expensive or pretentious.There are great gems in the $13-$18 range right out there on the shelf. Of course, if you love the hunt, be sure to engage the sommelier (wine expert) at your favorite wine shop for fun and adventure in the cellar. And though we’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover, choosing a wine for its label is perfectly acceptable! I believe that if great thought was put into the design of the label, that same deliberation was put in the juice. Remember, when it comes to wine, it’s all about developing confidence. Like school, the more you study the smarter you get—and the more wine you sip, the more your palate develops. Conquer these basics and you’ll be a graduate-level wine connoisseur in no time!
