A delightful twist on a classic garnish, this crispy fried parsley is lightly seasoned with lime and a touch of salt.

Pair with a bright Sauvignon Blanc or a refreshing sparkling wine to enhance its vibrant flavors.
Pairing
Fried Parsley, with its crispy texture, fresh herbal notes, and hints of lime and salt, pairs well with wines that complement its light and zesty flavor profile. Here are some ideal pairings:
-
Sauvignon Blanc: A bright and citrus-forward Sauvignon Blanc, such as the 2022 California Hillside Juggernaut ($95), enhances the parsley's herbal freshness and lime zest.
-
Prosecco or Sparkling Wine: The effervescence of a sparkling wine, like a Cava or Prosecco, cuts through the crispiness and complements the light saltiness.
-
Pinot Grigio: A crisp Pinot Grigio with subtle fruit and mineral notes works well with the delicate flavors of the dish.
-
Albariño: A Spanish Albariño with bright acidity and citrus undertones matches the lime notes while bringing a clean finish to the dish.
These wines allow the parsley's flavors to shine while balancing the dish's overall lightness and texture
