Wine Recommendation: Salty, sweet, and hot Asian food lends itself as no other cuisine to the fruity piquancy of German rieslings. Try a simple Qualittswein bestimmter Anbaugebiete (QbA) from the Mosel for best effect.

Notes: Most people throw away shiitake stems because they're tough. But you can simmer them gently in stock, or any liquid, until they're tender. If that's too much trouble, just save them to add flavor to stock.
