Food Pairings for Tequila on Cinco De Mayo or Any Time

Premium Brands Like AsomBroso Are a Good Match
for Much More Than Mexican Cuisine

SANTA MARGARITA, CA, USA, April 19, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — Tequila is not just something to wash down a few tacos or enchiladas anymore. More and more, top chefs are incorporating premium tequilas into their recipes and recommending food pairings with the increasingly popular agave-based spirit.

AsomBroso Tequila of Santa Margarita recently asked South Bay-based Chef and CEO, Meg Walker, to prepare a menu of food pairings with the company’s tequilas and some of her favorite recipes. While Cinco De Mayo, the popular holiday celebrating Mexican culture, beverages and cuisine is only a few weeks away, tequila goes well with a variety of cuisines year-round.

Here are Chef Meg’s tequila and food pairing suggestions:

Starter: AsomBroso El Platino Triple Distilled Blanco

• Smoked Shrimp with Sweet White Corn Puree & Guacamole in Hand Fried Wonton Tacos

• Creamy Goat Cheese Fried Polenta boxes with Fresh Cherries, Marcona Almonds & Meyer Lemon Zest

Entrée: AsomBroso La Rosa Bordeaux Rested 3 Month Reposado

• Chipotle Tequila Braised Short Ribs with Citrus Rock Salt
