It works well as a rather inexpensive main course for Autumn. If you have soy sauce, pepper, garlic cloves, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the fresh ginger you could follow this main course with the Fresh Ginger Cookies as a dessert.

Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling

Asian works really well with Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, and Riesling. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. One wine you could try is Beaumont Hope Marguerite Chenin Blanc. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 35 dollars.
