The most classic pairing of all with Tokaji Aszu is Foie Gras (goose liver). While many associate this delecacy with France, Hungary is the world’s leading producer and of course, makes Tokaji a natural pairing. The wine must be sweet, however not too cloying. We recommend to try Foie Gras with a 4 or 5 puttonyos Aszú, in the 100-140 g/l residual sugar range. |
Tokaji and Cheese
|
|
Tokaji Aszú is excellent with several kind of cheeses, especially blue cheeses, where it acts as a counterbalance to those foods' richness and saltiness. The stronger and richer the cheese the sweeter the Aszú should be. Try Brie or Comté with a 3 puttonyos, Goat Cheese or Triple Crème with a 4 puttonyos, and blue-veigned cheese such as Roquefort or Stilton with a 5 or 6 puttonyos. |

Just Said ...
„Listen then, your grace; his majesty the King of Sweden -
I beg pardon, the Count Haga
I should have said - drinks nothing but tokay.” - „Well, am I so poor as to have no tokay in my cellar? If so, I must dismiss my butler.”
from „The Queen's Necklace”
Alexandre Dumas
(1802-1870)
