Notes
Piment d'Espelette is a spicy ground red pepper from the Basque region of France. It's available at specialty food stores.
Suggested Pairing
The sweet shrimp and diced melon in Daniel Humm's salad are substantial enough to go with a white wine with some body. Pinot Gris, whether from Switzerland or Alsace, makes a great match.
