Gourmets and epicureans, you are invited to a journey through culinary delicacies. Your palates are sharpened, so the key to your enjoyment are the accompaniments that put a finishing touch to every meal. These can be a real gourmet creation in themselves, and they add something a little extra to every dish in which they appear. What will you use today to perfect the taste of your specialities?
Pep it up with cold cuts
Being wine lovers ourselves, we at Koželj.si online store put our heads together to see which gourmet accompaniments first come to mind in connection with wine. Deli meats, of course! Boutique organic cured meat products from the BioSing brand are made just for pleasant gatherings over wine. Conjure up a festive atmosphere for your guests with pork sausage and salami made of pork, beef and bacon, while true gourmets will happily nibble on venison salami or game sausage.
A gourmet selection of sweet, savoury, fruity and healthy delicacies
When you want to add something unique to your dishes, you don’t have to resort to rare and expensive gourmet accompaniments. Instead, choose a delicate, healing gourmet oil. For example, you can reach for the Kocbek dark pumpkinseed oil from Styria, made from selected pumpkinseeds, rich in vitamin E and with a good fatty acid composition. Pumpkinseeds themselves are a great snack, or a great addition to other dishes. Because they contain a lot of vitamins and minerals, they have a beneficial effect especially on urinary problems.
If you like to finish your dishes with 100% extra virgin olive oil, you will be interested in gourmet oil from the Istrian Monte Rosso grove, imbued with fruity aromas from as many as six varieties of olives. The Istrian sun also shone on figs, raspberries, blackberries, peaches and plums, whose sweetness, colour and aroma was preserved in gourmet jams.
No matter what the question is, the answer is always: chocolate!
If you have a sweet tooth that is also a bit more sophisticated, reach for Lucifer’s gourmet chocolate. Pink chocolate balls with ruby chocolate will pamper you with raspberry and cranberry pieces, while the combination of sweet and salty flavours in silvery chocolate balls with hazelnuts, caramel and salt will delight those who like to indulge in luxurious pleasures. Chocolate balls in beautiful glass packaging are a ready-made gift that will delight any gourmet. A similar experience is offered by the dark chocolate with caramel and fleur de sel from the Piran salt pans. And gin lovers will enjoy handmade chocolate truffles with Limbay gin cream.
Sweet wine can also be complemented by a piece of gourmet chocolate. For example, sweeten your day with handmade chocolates “Paulicas”. They are made by a young confectioner Hana, who named her brand Mama Paula after her grandmother Paula. Soft creamy “Paulicas” combine dark, milk and white Belgian chocolate with pistachios, hazelnuts, almonds and salted peanuts. Hmmm, is there anything better than that? Maybe gourmet chocolate sprinkled with forest fruits! With it, have yourself a glass of red wine.
When people ask what put such a wide smile on your face and put you in a good mood, just tell them what kind of treasures can be found in the Koželj.si online store. Gourmet accompaniments also feature in our gift packages.
Common questions
Which dishes pair best with pumpkinseed oil?
You can drizzle pumpkinseed oil over salad, vegetable risotto, pasta, fish or cheese, or mix it into cream cheese to make a spread. Of course, pumpkinseed oil pairs best with pumpkinseeds, both of which will be a great complement to cheese, roasted potatoes or pesto. Alternatively, you can impress your guests with a pumpkinseed Swiss roll.
What to serve at a wine tasting?
Wine tasting can be a very special experience, whether you visit a beautiful wine cellar with a centuries-old tradition, or organise a tasting at home with the help of our tasting packages. In any case, a top-quality drop of fine wine goes down even better in combination with a tasty snack. However, when pairing food and drink, you must take care that the selected snacks do not overshadow the taste of the wine.
Therefore, freshly prepared cold cuts with quality meat and cheese are usually served at wine tastings. This creates a lovely contrast between the sweetness of wine and the slight saltiness of the sausages. Cheese is also a great complement to any wine tasting, but the flavours of wine and cheese must match in their intensity. In addition, strong cheeses, which include cheeses with noble mould or a strong aroma, are best combined with sweet wines. When tasting sparkling wines, it is best to serve melted cheese or cream cheese.
