Question by Tiara: What kind of pasta sauce or dip can I make from red wine?
I have often heard of White Wine sauce for Pasta or Chicken Medallions…
Is there such a thing as a Red Wine Sauce or Dip?

hi! Luca was around 1yr old (14/5 months) when we shot the video. he had more or less 10 teeth at that time, no molars but the front ones yes.
ciao!!! b
How many tooth he has on this video?
thank you so much!!!
love ur videos
Thank you!! and welcome to BuonaPappa!
the second one was a vegetable broth with rice cereal. (the 1st veggie broth was done with carrots only). Remember to follow the “4 days rule” when you start: wait 4 days before adding a new veggie/fruit to his diet, that’s the time you will need to see if he has any allergy reaction. ciao ciao!
I introduced Luca to solid foods when he was 6 months. the very first baby food was an apple puree. I steamed the apple first, they are easier to digest
he is adorable !!mine will turn 4 months in a week!! when did you start your baby with sold food!!! what did you gave him first!!
Here are two- a pasta sauce and a cheese dip-
Here is a pasta sauce- you could add shrimp, chicken, calamari, claims or veggies of your choice.
2 (28 ounce) cans whole tomatoes
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
6-8 whole garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
1 large yellow onion, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3-4 sprigs fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
1-2 tablespoon dried oregano
1-2 tablespoon dried parsley
1-2 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
salt, to taste
1/4 cup freshly grated pecorino romano cheese
1 (750 ml) bottle merlot
In a large pot, saute the chopped onions and garlic in the olive oil over med-low heat.
Add the peeled tomatoes, crushing them with your hands one by one into smaller chunks. Be careful- they squirt all over the place! Make sure to pour in all the liquid in the cans as well. Add all ingredients except salt, cheese, and wine.
Stir all ingredients together. Cover, and increase heat to med-high. Simmer/cook 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally so that the sauce doesn’t burn on the bottom.
Add about 1/3 of the bottle of merlot. Add the cheese. Stir, reduce heat slightly and let that cook uncovered for another 15-20 min, stirring occasionally.
Taste and determine if you need salt, and add to taste. For salt with a little tang, add some more cheese, if you have it. Let simmer another 15 minutes uncovered, stirring occasionally.
During the last simmering stage, cook your pasta.
Serve over pasta (1 ladleful is gracious plenty). Extra sauce can frozen for up to a month. To reheat, let simmer on low uncovered, stirring frequently so the sugar in the merlot doesn’t burn.
*Spicy alternative: For a spicier sauce, use shiraz in place of merlot and add 2 tsp of dried red pepper flakes.
Cheese and Red Wine Dip
4oz Cheddar cheese, finely grated
1 tablesppon butter
1/2 cup dry red wine
Tabasco
salt and pepper
Put the grated cheese into a bowl with the butter or margarine, add the wine and beat them together to make a light, fluffy mixture. Add the Tabasco, some freshly ground black pepper and a little salt if necessary – it may not need any as the cheese is quite salty. Spoon the mixture into a small bowl or pâté dish and leave in a cool place until required.
You can make your regular tomato based pasta sauce and just add a dry red wine near the end of cooking…. It makes it taste so much better.
Actually, adding red wine to almost any cooking makes it better.
I pour red wine onto meats that are cooking on the grill, or fish in the oven.
It just gives the meats a much better flavor!
