videoThe smartest wine value in Italy today
For decades, the incredible red wines of Puglia disappeared into other bottles as Europe's secret blending engine. Discover Italy's best wine value. What questions does this video answer? Why did Puglia's wine disappear into other bottles for decades? What is the DNA connection between Italian Primitivo and California Zinfandel? What does Negroamaro wine taste like? How do ancient Alberello bush vines survive the intense Italian sun? Why is Puglia considered the smartest value in Italian wine today?

videoWe Tried Every Hot Dog–Here’s the Best | Food & Wine
What’s the best hot dog you can buy? Food & Wine food stylist Julian Hensarling and hot dog expert Lee Pantazis put some of the biggest brands and grocery store favorites to the ultimate blind taste test. From Nathan’s, Hebrew National, Sabrett, and Oscar Mayer to Costco, Trader Joe’s, Aldi, Walmart, and Whole Foods, they judge each all-beef hot dog on appearance, texture, and flavor—looking for great seasoning, a juicy bite, and that all-important snap. Along the way, they reveal how to spot a natural casing before you even take a bite, why natural-casing hot dogs have become surprisingly rare, and the surprising alternatives manufacturers use instead. Plus, Julian and TK discover why you shouldn't count out the store brands as a few unexpected contenders climb surprisingly high in the rankings. After tasting them all straight off the grill, the experts narrow down their favorites before crowning the ultimate #1 hot dog. Timestamps: 0:00 — Hot Dog Taste Test 0:41 — Oscar Mayer Beef

Fly cemetery and lilac
A few months ago some of my houseplant spider plants had babies and I potted the baby cuttings in some new compost I had bought in a local garden centre. The soil did not look particularly nutritious, but I know there have been bans in recent years in using peat, so I just guessed this was what I had to now deal with. A few weeks later, I noticed tiny little flies ducking and diving all over the house. I also noticed that whenever I watered the spider plant babies, the flies seemed to appear in abundance. I can only assume the fly larvae had been buried in the new compost when I bought it. I decided to buy some fly-catchers and stick them in the pots I was suspicious of. I then gave the pots a good watering and waited. I then discovered the most horrific sight. There were loads of fly bodies stuck to the catchers. Over the months, the number has increased and occasionally when I am sitting still - such as watching TV or eating, a rogue fly will flutter past me. They are so tiny, you do
videoHow to Pair Wine with Tinned Fish | Fishwife Tasting & Sommelier Review
Tinned seafood has completely evolved, and it’s easily one of the most under-appreciated pairings for wine. In this video, I’m putting my sommelier background to work to match three premium, sustainably-sourced tins from Fishwife Tinned Seafood Co. with three unexpected wines—from sparkling sweet reds to bone-dry Sherry. We’re building a simple tasting board using fresh ricotta, Swedish rye crackers, and dark pumpernickel squares to show you how a neutral palate foundation bridges the fat, smoke, and spice of the fish straight into the structure of the wine. 🛒 TRY FISHWIFE TINNED SEAFOOD: Grab your own tins here: https://fishwife.sjv.io/zzm5D0 (Disclosure: Using this link supports the channel at no extra cost to you!) 🍷 THE WINE PAIRINGS IN THIS VIDEO: 1️⃣ Smoked Salmon with Fly By Jing Chili Crisp + Chilled Sparkling Sweet Red (Brachetto d'Acqui or Lambrusco) 2️⃣ Beechwood Smoked Salmon + Chilled Dry Fino Sherry 3️⃣ Smoked Rainbow Trout + Austrian Grüner Veltliner ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:
