In the September issue of Food & Wine, there’s a collection of recipes under the headline “Autumn Pairings” and the subhead “Our favorite sommeliers share their go-to dishes and wine pairings for when the weather starts to cool.” One of the recipes is for lumpia, fried Filipino spring rolls that contain ground pork, napa cabbage, carrot, and scallions, among other ingredients. What they don’t contain is mushrooms, which is an issue because “mushrooms” are mentioned in the accompanying wine pairing note.
Maybe mushrooms were used in either the lumpia or the sauce at one point but were later taken out of the recipe. Or maybe the wine was initially going to be paired with both the lumpia and the recipe on the previous page, Cream of Mushroom Soup. At any rate, the association between mushrooms and the Chenin Blanc was taken away somewhere along the editing process, but the mention of “mushrooms” wasn’t taken out of the pairing note.
That error has been corrected on foodandwine.com, where the umami is attributed to the lumpia.
