Be sure to taste some of the wine before you use it. If it&#8217;s not fit to drink, it&#8217;s not fit to cook with, either.<\/p>\n<p>Cooking wine is usually a poor quality wine, with a lot of salt added to it, to prevent anyone from being able to drink it. It was a product invented during <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Prohibition#United_States\">Prohibition<\/a> and the reason why most supermarkets can sell it, without a liquor license (even to children), without violating any laws. It&#8217;s that horrible! Don&#8217;t buy it!<\/p>\n<p>If you decide you would rather not use wine in a recipe that calls for it, or you just don&#8217;t have any on hand, you can usually substitute a fruit juice in its place. Just remember to use a bit less, since it won&#8217;t evaporate as much as wine, due to not having any alcohol in it. A good rule of thumb is to replace red wines with cranberry juice and white wines with apple juice.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Never use &#8220;cooking wine&#8221;!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":87,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tips","wpcat-16-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":671,"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10\/revisions\/671"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/87"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
