Our Special Sauce Recipe: Elevate Your Sammy
Each Platypus Wine Tour offers guests the chance to explore wine country, taste fine wines from wineries in Sonoma and wineries in Napa , and dine on a picnic lunch at a scenic location. Our chefs prepare the picnic and when it’s lunchtime, our tour guides prepare the meal. Recently, more and more guests have asked us “what is in that special sauce in the sandwiches?!” Our chef loves getting these questions because it means folks enjoyed the food enough to want to recreate it themselves. The sauce is surprisingly simple so there’s no excuse not to try it at home. Pair it with your favorite wines from wineries in Sonoma or wineries in Napa. So, by popular demand, we present Chef Carlos’ The balsamic dressing used for our sandwiches (but can have other uses too – get creative!): Chef Carlos’ Balsamic Dressing 1 cup Balsamic vinegar 2 cups Olive oil 2 Tbs Dijon mustard 2 Tbs dry Italian seasoning 2 tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper In a blender add all ingredients except oil
