Noshing With Marisa Finetti – January 5, 2023

Author, Marisa’s Wine Doodles

This week, Ira spoke with Marisa Finetti, author of Marisa’s Wine Doodles. In this varietal episode of Ira’s Everything Bagel, Marisa Finetti talks about her early years in wine before moving to Las Vegas; her surprise at finding a connection with wine in Las Vegas; her decision to write about wine and eventually to write a book on the subject that was accessible and fun…and full of doodles!; why a wine is like a certain type of person; the most recent wine region she toured as a member of the media; why there’s never a shortage of stories about wine; what are “wine diamonds”?; and her favorite part of the book.

Marisa Finetti is an award-winning wine writer and illustrator based in Las Vegas. She regularly contributes to Wine Enthusiast and Decanter magazines. Marisa is a member of the Circle of Wine Writers and holds a WSET 3 certification in Wines with Wine and Spirit Education Trust. (VIDEO IF AVAILABLE)

BAGEL BYTES

“Ira’s Everything Bagel” is also available on Alexa, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pocket Casts, SoundCloud, Spotify, Stitcher Radio, Tunein Radio, and Vurbl.

“Bagels are the only bread that are boiled before baked. Once the bagel dough is shaped into a circle, they are dipped in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. After that, they are drained and baked for about 10 minutes.”

Bagels have been to space! “It’s safe to say that the treats from Fairmount Bagels in Montreal are out of this world. In 2008, Astronaut Greg Chamitoff boarded Discovery for a 14-day flight into space. Accompanying him? Eighteen bagels from Fairmount, a shop owned by his aunt.”

“The word Bagel comes from the German word “bougel,” meaning “bracelet,” and by way of the Yiddish “beygl” which means “ring.” So, if it is not in the shape of a ring or bracelet, it is NOT a bagel.”

“What sets bagels apart from other types of bread is the fact that they are boiled. Some imitations are steamed, but they do not have the same chewy and crunchy crust and are not true bagels.”

“The first beugel bakeries were founded in New York City in the 1920s. Later the name was changed and called a bagel.”

“The hole in the middle of your bagel is no mistake. In fact, this bread was baked with a hole so vendors could slide them on to dowel rods, making it easy to transport them to wherever they would be selling their bagel that day.”

“Bagels are the only bread that are boiled before they are baked.”

World Champion Competitive Eater Joey Chestnut won Siegel’s Bagelmania Bagel Eating Competition in Las Vegas January 13, winning the title, a championship belt and $5,000 of the total $10,000 prize pool.
