Gew\u00fcrztraminer! Wait, what? Well, the best friend of Asian dishes, of course. <\/h2>\n\n

Mezzacorona Gew\u00fcrztraminer<\/strong><\/a> likes to play around and tie your tongue in knots, but as a wine it’s not nearly this complicated. This charming wine comes from the foothills of the Alps, and its specialty is Asian dishes and bold flavors, which it masterfully rounds out into something palatable. Whether the food is gently mild or super spicy, the versatile Mezzacorona Gew\u00fcrztraminer won’t flinch. Quite the opposite! <\/p>\n\n

The range of Asian food is absolutely vast and varies by region, as we’re talking about the world’s largest continent. Food cultures extend from Indian to Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and many other cuisines. There’s plenty of variation even within countries, such as across China. Many cuisines favor bold flavors and heat, but there are also milder options available. Something for everyone! <\/p>\n\n

The trusted companion for Asian flavors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mezzacorona Gew\u00fcrztraminer is like it was made to pair with Asian meals, as it has a touch of sweetness, making it a wonderful match for bold flavors. The wine lightens and balances meals, and gives milder flavors the space they deserve. In addition to bold dishes, this pleasant white wine also tastes wonderful with milder dishes and, for example, sushi. Sushi is of course served with soy sauce and wasabi, which is seriously spicy! By the way, did you know that most of the wasabi we eat isn’t actually real wasabi, but dyed horseradish, which is a close relative of wasabi? <\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

Soy in many flavors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In addition to spicy food, Mezzacorona Gew\u00fcrztraminer is in its element with umami and other basic flavors. The trademark of East Asian dishes is soy sauce, which essentially includes the umami flavor. For example, the sauce familiar from Chinese food is a staple in many Finnish homes as well. Soy is versatile also in the form of tofu, for instance, which is a popular ingredient in curries and sauces. Many find fried tofu especially delicious, where the frying adds a nice extra flavor and pleasant mouthfeel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An important spice in the Asian flavor world is also ginger, which can be used for several different purposes in Asian cuisines. For example, the idea of the ginger served with sushi is to cleanse the palate of the previous sushi’s flavor, so you can enjoy the next one with a clean slate. In many Indian dishes, ginger flavors the sauce often together with cumin and coriander. Feel free to try Mezzacorona Gew\u00fcrztraminer with your favorite Asian dishes! <\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
