How to Make Honey Miso Orange Glazed Sweet Potato Skewers
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut into slices no thicker than a finger, approximately the same size. That is why it is preferable to choose elongated specimens, which have a regular shape. Place in a microwave-safe container or steamer basket and cook about 4-5 minutes, until they can be pierced with a toothpick but are still firm. Let cool.
Grate some of the washed orange peel into a bowl, and squeeze the juice over it. Add themutasio (substitute a few crushed sesame seeds, as an alternative), cinnamon, honey, miso, soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce and vinegar. Beat well to emulsify a little and add the sweet potatoes, mixing so that they are impregnated.
Grease wooden skewers or use metal ones. Thread the sweet potato pieces, draining the marinade and reserving it, making sure they are more or less regular. Heat a grill or griddle over high heat and brush lightly with olive oil. Cook the skewers on both sides until they brown and caramelize, and the sweet potato is ready. Brush from time to time with the marinade liquid. Season before serving with chopped chives.

Perfect for a snack dinner, soft dishes or sausages.

Wine: Friday
Friday is the dreamer of the Godelia family; a young Mencía, in his thirties, with a youthful spirit, carefree and fun. A good way to discover Mencía is to do so through this young and easy-to-drink red, characteristics that also make it the ideal choice for chatting. Assembly of Mencía grapes from its youngest vines from plots with orientations, exposures and microclimate with their own personality.
In the glass it presents a pure and young version of the Mencía. A full red cherry color with a middle layer and a violet edge. Intense nose with aromas of fresh wild fruit along with floral aromas and scrubland, with a slight mineral nuance. On the palate it is tasty, fresh and elegant, slightly marked by soft tannins and with a long and persistent finish.

The Winery
We present Godelia, a winery that was born in 2009 by the García Rodríguez family, motivated by their love of nature.
His idea was, and still is, to create a new agronomic concept: to make a wine according to traditions through a sustainable process. A young, diverse and highly qualified team that continues with that goal of achieving perfection.
Godelia's trajectory for more than two decades is already part of the modern and more recent history of El Bierzo, and today its wines with a marked Atlantic character represent a unique way of understanding this land. His project is the materialization of a dream: a winery in El Bierzo that creates value and a future for the region, a legacy through its wines.
