A great way to watch the bowl game of your choice on New Year’s Day is with your favorite submarine sandwich and a nice, cold glass of wine – Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Riesling… whatever you like.
Particularly if you’re serving Sauvignon Blanc, a splash of olive vinaigrette can really make the sandwich… and the wine… sing. The following recipe makes 1 cup.
