Most people like sweets to so some degree, and I am no exception. A classic treat that can be made rather easily is fudge. And a classic variety of fudge is the one that has whisky added to it. Needless to say that this is my favourite.

To create a bit of a cross between gravlax and smoked salmon I had the idea of adding smoky whisky to the curing ingredients. I think the comparatively light-bodied and fresh character of Ardbeg is the perfect match for the salmon.

I have always wondered why there are so little cocktails based on sherry. After pondering this for a while I had an idea: Why not make a Manhattan-like cocktail with sherry and a sherried Scotch ?

Whisky Christmas Dinner – Course 3: Bruichladdich Zabaione

December 7, 2009

To conclude the Whisky Christmas Dinner, I selected a variation of a classic Italian desert. Zabaione, or Zabaglione as it is sometimes spelled, is traditionally made with Marsala, a fortified wine from Sicily. Bue there is no problen in finding a single malt whisky that can replace it.

Whisky Christmas Dinner – Course 2: Glendronach Leg of Venison

December 4, 2009

The main course of my Christmas dinner will feature a venison roast. To underlinine the Christmas character of the dish, it will be accompanied by a gingerbread sauce with a bit of dark chocolate. Preparation is fairly simple.

Whisky Christmas Dinner – Course 1: Mortlach Oxtail Soup

December 2, 2009

Right in time for Christmas, I have prepared a three course dinner where whisky plays an important role as an ingredient. For each course I selected a single malt whisky that matches the character of the dish as well as possible.

The first course will be a classic oxtail soup.
