I quite liked Glühwine from the first time I tasted it. It was in Freiburg, Germany while spending Christmas vacations. Freiburg is the closest German town we have to Franco-German-Swiss borders.
Going by the chilly European winters, it is no wonder that some one had to 'invent' the use of hot, mulled wine with spices to keep cold at bay. While the exact story of the origin of Glühwine is not established, having it in Germany is a fitting tribute to its place of origin!
Parisians, and others who are far from Germany, need not despair. With a bit of motivation and enterprise, you can prepare your own Glühwine in a few quick and easy steps. Here's how to do it
My tryst with the French cuisine, being the hallmark of refined gastronomy that it is, never saw the light of the day! Call it fate or choice that being a vegetarian has limited my affair with this sensual French dimension. However, I have more than compensated for this 'lack' by indulging in sweet French temptations over many a cup of hauntingly aromatic espressos.
