The second course to the table is traditionally served after the soup – in other words, the main ones are the “second” dishes that are familiar to us, which are the central element of the meal.

Sometimes I want wine, but only a couple of glasses. The rest is sent to the refrigerator. Sometimes we have so much to do that we forget about wine for a couple of days. During this time, it loses its taste qualities. Of course, you can finish it, but without much pleasure. But such remnants of wine make an interesting sauce. With sourness and a special aftertaste. I already have a recipe for “wine potatoes”, but there potatoes are baked in the oven in small portions and for a long time. I rethought this recipe and simplified it for cooking in a frying pan. I picked up a recipe for osso buco from turkey, which also plays a special role in wine.
