Wine Pairing
Fish Veracruz is a traditional dish, but making it a filling for a taco is a different story. Tacos are snacks, but they can also be made into a meal.
You can add slices of red and yellow bell pepper to add some sweetness and peppery notes. The Veracruz-style sauce traditionally accompanies red snapper, but it works well with any white-fleshed fish and of course with salmon. You can also tweak the recipe by adding some diced carrots and celery for added crunch.
This light and yummy fish recipe can be paired with crisp light white wines. Here is the top list to pair with it:
- Sauvignon Blanc
- Pinot Blanc
- Pinot Gris
- Vermentino
