Curanto for a dinner party — went down extremely well

I made Curanto for eight guests who had varying familiarity with the cuisine. Every single person asked for the recipe. The fresh from the sea profile was the main talking point — no one had quite experienced Carménère wine used that way before.

the completo hot dog with avocado is a peculiarly Chilean street food obsession. I explained the a family asado context as I served it which helped people appreciate it fully. Carménère was what I offered alongside and it worked perfectly. Excellent dinner party dish — impressive without being inaccessible.
