I've only made food with alcohol once - Spaghetti sauce with red wine. I love red wine in spaghetti sauce, but we never have it on hand, unfortunately.

Was it a specific kind of red wine, or will any red do?

I actually prefer cooking with juice to cooking with alcohol, though my experiences with both are limited. For example, using apple juice or white grape and peach juice instead of white wine. Annette makes a great Alfredo sauce using apple juice. Her spaghetti sauce is good too, but I don't get to eat it very often.

Elara : Pretty sure any red wine will do, but I'm not an expert. I add only about 1/3 of a cup for a batch that makes 10 servings of sauce.

I am not much of a cook and I really do not cook that often, but I have seen my parents use alcohol in their cooking before, I think they have used it on turkey, but I do not really remember.

i love cookin with alcohol here r some uses...



beer-for my carne asada marinade and for my onion rings also

white wine-for deglazing and tomato sauces for pastas.

red wine- also for deglazing and for steaks marinades.


and i know that it has been said but u cant drunk off anyhing infused with alcohol it gets vaporized from the heat.

also if u want to drink a glass of wine with food here is what i suggest...

red wine-good with steaks,chicken

white wine-good with fish,pastas,chicken,veggies. if u r having a dinner that has some bitterness to it accompany it with a sweet type of wine and vice versa

No, I have never cooked with alcohol. I use other things to marinate my steaks.
