Winemaking ---- Success Story.

Finally the wine was tasted and approved and liked.
I had tasted the wine while I was filling the bottles. I filled four 750 ml bottles and two 1 liter bottles + almost a glass full. I wanted some more people to taste the wine before posting the success story here. My daughter and her fiance were here last weekend and both of them tasted it and approved it. My daughter also mentioned that one of her friends will like it. So now I can say I have made the wine successfully.
The wine is very pale yellow (like the pineapple) in colour and is dry. There is very subtle pineapple fragrance to it.
I never knew getting glass bottles with good screw on tops was so difficult. At present I have the wine filled into washed and sterelised whisky bottles with no tops/lids/corks hence the plastic with the rubber band. Desi style!!!!
Here is the picture of the 4 glass bottles.

Wine making

Day 11 of wine making. 
I don't have a clue if it is happening or not. Everyday I open it and stir it and the close it up as mentioned it in the recipe I am following. 
Hope by the end of it all the wait is worth it.

Pineapple Salsa Indian Style

Here is a quick recipe using fresh pineapple.
Ingredients:
1 cup pineapple pieces
1/2 cup fresh coconut grated
2-3 red chillies dried will do too
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
2 cloves of garlic ( optional )
Salt to taste
Method:
Grind the mustard, grated coconut and red chilies and garlic (if using) to a very fine paste. Add this to the pineapple pieces. Add salt and mix well. Chill for 3 to 4 hours before serving. Tastes delicious with the sweet/sour taste of pineapple, bite of red chilly and tang of mustard.
