Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

Antipasti works really well with Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. You could try Vietti Cascinetta Moscato d'Asti. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 18 dollars per bottle.

Vietti Cascinetta Moscato d'Asti

Pale sunshine yellow color and slight frizzante, this Moscato d'Asti has intense aromas of peaches, rose petals and ginger. On the palate it is delicately sweet and sparkling with modest acidity, good balance, good complexity and a finish of fresh apricots. Wonderful as an aperitif, perfect accompaniment to Pan-Asian cuisine and lobster as well as pastry, fruit based and creamy desserts and blue cheeses.

Instructions

In a large soup pot add the oil, onions and celery. Cook over medium low heat until translucent. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant. Add the tomato paste and harissa. Cook a minute then add the water or stock slowly while stirring to combine the flavor paste in the pot with the liquids. Throw in the chickpeas and bring to a boil. As soon as it reaches a boil, reduce heat to a simmer. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions. My suggestion is that if you are using fresh pasta, give it a rinse under tap water to remove the starch before adding it to the soup. It might make the broth cloudy. If using rice noodles add them right before serving to prevent overcooked mushy noodles. To cook rice noodles place them in a shallow dish and cover with hot water for 10-15 minutes to soften. Just before serving taste for seasoning, adjust to your taste. Adding too much salt earlier on could make things too salty because some of the ingredients can bring a lot of salt to the pot. Then add the spinach, it will only take a minute to shrink into nearly nothing, but it is sure a powerhouse vegetable that amps up the nutrition in this meal quickly and without fuss. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice after it has been taken off the heat will add a nice bright flavor to perk up those dreary dark days of winter. Enjoy with some crusty bread. A meal you can feel good about, filling yet light.
