The Holland House brand has teamed up with Tatyana Nesteruk host of the You Tube cooking show.

Holland House is a brand that we can all have confidence in using.
My Mom used Holland House and I do too, it has been around for 100 years!In a time period where so many things come and go, it sure is nice to use a trusted product that your can rely on and has stood the test of time.Holland House wines are fantastic for everyday meals, you can add a few tablespoons to any dish and immediately enhance the flavors of everything from chili's and stews to seafood.This past Sunday we had Chicken Marsala for Sunday dinner and I used the Holland House Marsala cooking wine, it was delicious.
Each cooking wine has it's own unique flavor and enhances dishes in different ways.I have provided a little information which I thought might be a useful resource for your Holiday cooking.
The Flavors Of Five Holland House Cooking Wines
Marsala cooking wine imparts a well-rounded, sweet wine flavor with hints of hazelnut that is versatile and ideal for cooking with beef, chicken and pork.
Sherry cooking wine offers a mild, sherry-wine flavor with hints of nut and caramel, perfect for use in dessert recipes to balance sweet with a hint of nutty flavor.
Red cooking wine offers a smooth, medium-bodied wine flavor that is ideal for cooking heartier dishes like beef, lamb and pork.
White cooking wine adds a slightly dry, but distinct wine flavor perfect for bringing out the bold flavors in chicken, seafood and sauces.
White and Lemon cooking wine brings a citrus twist to the traditional white wine flavor, ideal for cooking lighter dishes like seafood.

Good morning Jemma! I too have used these products when my recipes called for wine. I enjoy the white wine since I don't cook with beef but rather poultry. What a kick wine gives to a recipe, and it turns it into a French inspired delight! I hope you are having a great week my friend!
ReplyDeleteI used Holland House once but can't find it anymore in our area. At least not in the stores I go to. Those look really wonderful as does the pasta!
ReplyDeleteI've had Holland House on hand for years Jemma, now I have a great recipe to try it with :).
ReplyDeleteI remember my mom using Holland House marsala for chicken marsala. It's funny, whenever I see a recipe that calls for wine, I never think to look for these, but I will in the future.
ReplyDeleteI would love to to try Holland House! Thanks for the chance at this AWESOME giveaway!!
