Food and Wine Pairing: The Singapore Local Food Edition

Food and Wine Pairing

Pairing wine with Singaporean cuisine can be an exciting adventure, as the diverse flavours of Singaporean food offer a range of opportunities for interesting pairings. Here are some suggestions for pairing wine with popular Singaporean dishes:

Wine Pairing: A light, aromatic white wine such as Riesling or Gewürztraminer complements the subtle flavours of the poached chicken and fragrant rice. Alternatively, a dry sparkling wine or Champagne can also be a refreshing match.

Crystal Wines Recommends:

Wine pairing: One of Singapore’s most famous courses, this dish features stir-fried crab covered with a spicy tomato-based chilli sauce. It goes well with Riesling, or light to medium-bodied wines with fruity tastes to balance the spicy flavour in your mouth.

Crystal Wines Recommends:

Wine Pairing: This dish is rich and savory with smoky flavours from the wok hei (breath of the wok). Pair it with a fruity and slightly sweet white wine like a Chenin Blanc or a off-dry Riesling to complement the flavors without overpowering them.

Crystal Wines Recommends:

Wine Pairing: Satay pairs well with a slightly spicy, fruit-forward red wine such as a Grenache or a Syrah/Shiraz. The wine’s fruitiness complements the savory-sweet flavours of the satay sauce while the spice is balanced by the wine’s body and tannins.

Crystal Wines Recommends:

Wine Pairing: Laksa’s rich and creamy coconut curry base calls for a wine with good acidity to cut through the richness. A slightly off-dry Riesling or Gewürztraminer can complement the dish’s spiciness and enhance its flavors. Alternatively, a dry rosé with good acidity can also be a refreshing choice.

Crystal Wines Recommends:

Wine Pairing: This hearty pork rib soup with its complex herbal flavors pairs well with a light-bodied red wine such as Pinot Noir or a fruity Beaujolais. The wine’s acidity can cut through the richness of the soup while complementing its herbal notes.

Crystal Wines Recommends:

Remember, the key is to balance the flavours of the food with the characteristics of the wine. These pairings are just suggestions, and personal preferences should always be considered. Feel free to experiment and discover your own favourite combinations!
