The Bees Knees!

September 11, 2015 by admin

Did you know it’s Bee Aware month? Read more about it HERE.

We’re a wee way off from our first jar of honey, but we’re already researching recipes that will compliment our Fairbourne Premium Hand Picked Sauvignon Blanc.

It’s no secret that salmon pairs well with Fairbourne, for a little sweetness that’s not cloying, serve it with a browned butter citrus sauce.

Melt 6 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until the foam subsides and the butter begins to turn a golden brown. Stir in 2 cloves of crushed garlic, a tablespoon of honey and a tablespoon of lime (or lemon) juice, add salt and pepper, to taste.

This will give you enough sauce to drizzle over four cooked salmon fillets. Serve with seasonal vegetables, and don’t forget the Fairbourne Sauvignon Blanc. Enjoy!
