Baked Beans
DESCRIPTION

Baked beans is a savory and slightly sweet dish made by simmering beans with a flavorful sauce. The sauce typically includes brown sugar, molasses, apple cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce, giving the beans a rich, complex flavor. Bacon, onion, garlic, and paprika are often added for additional depth. The result is a tender, saucy side dish or dip.

WINE PAIRING

The sweet and savory flavors of baked beans, enhanced by brown sugar, molasses, and bacon, pair well with a crisp white wine like Tocai Friulano. This light-bodied wine has a subtle almond note that complements the dish's sweetness, while its high acidity cuts through the richness of the beans and balances the tangy apple cider vinegar and Worcestershire sauce.
