A real frittata isn’t a quiche without pastry. It’s an omelette, though one that isn’t folded over but rather popped under the grill to finish it. I tend to like mine rather thin and often make them in a crepe pan or similar if dining alone.Wine match Moo Brew Hefeweizen (wheat beer), Tas
Egg dishes are always an interesting challenge when you go to the drinks cabinet. Both the cheese content and the cooking technique will yield a fluffy, smooth egg dish, which can send you in a couple of directions. A really crisp, dry white, like an Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc, will work as far as it cleans up the palate and refreshes, but try it with a naturally cloudy, character-filled wheat beer for something a bit different. Let’s stick to a Tassie drop, like the Moo Brew Hefeweizen, to go with Matthew’s beautiful frittata. It’s the texture where this match really works; the creamy, soft, low-hop bitterness beer coupling nicely with the silky frittata.
