Burrowing Owl Estate Winery Cookbook: Recipes for a Good Life

The Question We Most Often Hear in Our Tasting Room Is: “What Should I Pair with This Wine”?

So, we collaborated with award-winning cookbook author and wine writer Jennifer Schell Lirag and wrote a cookbook to answer that question. Our new Burrowing Owl Estate Winery Cookbook, Recipes for a Good Life ($38.95+tax, or $44.90), is the finished product.

The book is organized by varietals that we produce at Burrowing Owl, and each varietal features a 3-course menu that pairs beautifully with it (starter, main, dessert). Traditionally, cookbooks are organized by appetizers, salads, soups, mains, and desserts. Still, we have taken a different approach and arranged ours by recipes that pair with the varietals we produce: Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier, and more.

The recipes are a collaboration between Jennifer and our family. Jennifer meticulously tested our Wyse family favourites for pairing and ease of preparation, fine-tuning them to her quality standards. The recipes are delicious and easy to prepare, with ingredients easily sourced from local grocery stores and farm markets. We wanted to provide the tools for people to cook a fabulous wine-paired dinner and feel like a rock star.

In addition to being a cookbook, the book provides Wyse family history and stories, information about the winery, our winemaking and farming practices, conservation efforts, and details on burrowing owls, as well as tips about wine pairing and what’s in season.

The book is available now on our website at burrowingowlwine.ca, on-site in our Wine Shop, and through Sandhill Book Marketing to select Indigo stores and independent bookstores in BC, Alberta, and Ontario. More are being added daily!

From our table and family to yours, please enjoy.

Cheers,
