O.H.S.O. Brewery’s Poke’ Tuna

Orange Tree

Beautiful Orange Tree Manor with Detached Guest House Offered at $1,350,000

Vineyard Visits

In Good Taste O.H.S.O. Eatery + Nano Brewery 602.955.0358 | OHSOBrewery.com

POKE’ TUNA Ingredients Tuna: 1 lb Ahi Tuna, small dice 2 Limes, halved 1 tsp Chinese Seven Spice Wonton Crackers: 12 Wonton skins 2 c Vegetable oil 1/2 c Spicy mayonnaise The Build 12 Wonton crackers 8 oz Seaweed salad 8 oz Daikon root, julienne

1 Lime, squeezed 1 tbsp Chinese Seven Spice 1 tbsp Siracha Chili Sauce

1 pkg Radish sprouts Sweet soy sauce as needed Spicy mayonnaise as needed

Preparation Tuna: In a medium bowl place diced Ahi tuna squeeze limes and add the Chinese Seven Spice, place in refrigerator until ready to use.

Wonton Crackers: Take the two cups of oil and pour into sauce pot and heat to 350 degrees. Once the temperature has been reached place one wonton skin in the oil and fry until crispy. Place on a paper towel to allow the oil to drain off and continue with the rest. Continue until all wonton skins are completed.

Spicy Mayonnaise: In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, lime juice, Siracha and Chinese Seven Spice and mix until smooth. Place in a small plastic bag, reserve for later.

The Build Lay crackers down onto a serving platter or individual plate and top with prepared Poke’ tuna evenly on each cracker.

Then layer with Daikon radish root, then a layer of seaweed salad and then drizzle the prepared spicy mayonnaise (cut the tip on the corner of bag to drizzle) over the top. Alternate layers utilizing sweet soy sauce instead of spicy mayonnaise.

Garnish each one with radish sprouts.

If you’ve ever thought of visiting a vineyard but haven’t gone yet, fall is the perfect time of year to enjoy the fruits of the vine. Grape harvest time in the Northern Hemisphere is from August to October. The weather is comfortable and there is lots going on at the vineyards to see and do. You may want to plan your visit based on the wine you prefer to sip.

In the U.S., for example, certain varieties reach peak ripeness at different times of the year. If you’re a fan of Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, or Chardonnay, head to the vineyards in September.

Chenin Blanc, Merlot, and Syrah tend to peak closer to October. And big, rich Cabernet ripens October through November.

Believe it or not, prior to the 20th century, most of America’s wine grapes were grown in the Midwest. It’s no surprise that today, however, California is the nation’s wine leader, producing 90 percent of the wine grapes grown in the U.S. Napa and Sonoma are the pinnacle of wine country on the West Coast. However, things are changing: Wineries are popping up and gaining in popularity around the country, from Washington state and Oregon, to Long Island and upstate New York.

Wine grapes are now grown in all but

four states in the nation, according to Snooth.com. Seems there is a variety of grape that grows well in almost every climate in the United States. There are now some 3,000 wineries in the U.S., making it the 4th largest producer of wine in the world. That means ample opportunity for you to stop in at a winery near you or visit one the next time you’re vacationing.

Many wine aficionados have their favorite variety of vino, whether it’s red, white, blush, or sparkling. But it’s always good to remember that certain wines go best with certain foods. Gone are the hard and fast rules that red wine should be paired with beef and white should be paired with chicken and seafood.

A good rule of thumb: Try rosé with hors d’oeuvres; non-oaky whites (think Sauvignon Blanc) with citrusy meals; and reds with steaks and rich tomato-based dishes. Bottom line?

If it makes your meal taste better, you’ve found a perfect pairing.

And don’t forget to store your wine appropriately. Although only the finest and rarest of wines truly need to be cellared for a length of time, it is still important to store your wine the right way to keep it tasting its best. Try to keep it stored at a consistent

temperature (the perfect temp is 45 to 65 degrees, but don’t fret if it’s not exact).

However, note that extreme changes in heat or cold could affect the taste of the wine. Also, try to keep it out of direct sunlight, which can also alter the flavor. If you aren’t lucky enough to have your own wine cellar, look for a cool, dark place in your home to store your wine or consider a wine cooler as a nice addition to your kitchen. CHEERS!
