Squeak Bean can help you cater for vegetarians and vegans this Christmas

Yes, those neat people at Squeaky Bean can really help you cater for the vegetarians and vegans in your life this Christmas.

If you are going to cater for a mixed crowd this Christmas and New Year, you will be able to provide the vegetarians and vegans who will be visiting you home over the Christmas and New Year period if you buy the delicious products in the Squeaky Bean range. Or maybe you are the vegetarian or vegan in your family? Then these products will be ideal for you, too!

There are tasty Roast Chicken style slices which do taste very like roast chicken. 

Got guests who want something with a bit more bite for their mouthful? Then look no further than the Squeaky Bean char-grilled Piri- Piri mini fillets. They are pleasantly spicy without being over the top and they do taste just as if they are just from the BBQ! 

I personally love the Squeaky Bean Applewood Smoked Ham Style Vegan Slices. Even though I am not a vegan or even a vegetarian!

Making sandwiches for the Christmas platters? Try the NYC Deli Pastrami Style sandwich slices to make a nice change from the usual?

Like Indian style spices? If you do (and who doesn't?) then you and your guests will adore the Squeaky Bean Kick of Tika chicken style slices. 

The range can be eaten uncooked, or you can cook them if you wish, suitable cooking instructions are included, if appropriate. 

I also love the Squeaky Bean Scotch egg bites as they are absolutely delicious.

Other items are available so keep an eye out for them.

Available from Sainsbury's, Tesco, Ocado, Asda, Waitrose and the Co-Op, plus other retailers, too, including https://shop.wattsfarms.co.uk/.

Other stores are coming on board, so do watch out for availability at your store or ask them to check out www.Squeakybean.co.uk

latentia primitivo puglia 2020

Latentia primitivo puglia 2020 wine is one of the best wines that my wife and I have tasted in recent years.

It's a high quality and award winning Italian red wine. It's a very red type of red wine, with a good deep colour. 

The flavour is a very full flavour, yet it is not too overpowering. 

There are hints of hedgerow fruits such as blackberries, but also there are strong notes of cherries and dark red berries.

It also carries some spiced notes like fresh black pepper and also cinnamon and perhaps a touch of ginger? I thought I could detect ginger, but my wife wasn't in agreement with me on that point. But we both enjoyed the wine very much, which is the main thing.

We feel that it would be a good accompaniment to red meat dishes and also with cheeses, though the winery points out that it pairs well with cured cheeses and with pasta dishes.

I personally found that it was a fine choice of wine to be served with minced pies. It has a 13.5% vol.

We actually feel that this wine would also be a good match for traditional Christmas delicacies so we would heartily recommend buying several bottles (or a case) for the Christmas and New Year festivities.

Check your local wine merchant or it is also available via Amazon at £12.00 a 75 cl bottle.
