While folks are all geeked out about Valentine’s Day, at our house, it’s all about Mardi Gras. The house has been decorated in purple, green, and gold and we’ve consumed our fair share of king cake – hello Gambino’s praline king cake! Given that Mr. Corkscrew hails from southern Louisiana, which is ground central for all things Creole, Cajun, and Mardi Gras, the cuisines of the region often show up in our kitchen. And since my mantra is “there is a wine for everything” I’ve spent a fair amount of time figuring out the perfect wines for all the Mardi Gras foods. I’ve worked my way through the likes of gumbo, red beans and rice, po-boys, and even boudin.
