In my home town this time of year there is a celebration of the flavor and scent of fresh grapes. The Grape Festival in Geneva, Ohio is a long-standing tradition with a carnival, food and craft booths and the best parade in the county. And the foods they serve made with grapes—perfection. Once one of the major producers for Welch’s, Geneva is now home to many local wine producers who use the Lake Erie climate to produce flavorful grapes and great wines. There is a recipe contest each year for grapes and one year I developed this recipe using my favorite cooking herb. I am not keen on honey, but after several tries we realized if you drizzled the roasted grapes with honey the favor just burst forth and so I recommend you try it.
Thyme Roasted Grapes
Delicious as a simple appetizer paired with sliced cheese, roasted grapes also work well when served as a side dish with chicken or turkey or with angel food cake and whipped cream for dessert. They're quick and easy to prepare, yet elegant enough for company. Ingredients
