Guest guest Posted December 6, 2003 Report Share Posted December 6, 2003 I find that when I cook with wine it hurts my tummy? Maybe its the tannins, not sure. I sure love the way it cooks up in a stew though. hugzzz flo crockpot roast > Speaking of the roast recipe the other day---could one use the cooking wines at the grocery store instead of real wine?

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 Cooking wine has LOADS of salt in it. Buy an inexpensive bottle of wine to cook with. I promise the taste will be MUCH better and you won't mind throwing the left overs out. Normally (OK in MY family I am the gourmet cook) you would cook with the same wine you are serving with dinner. So, if you were cooking a roast and you wanted to drink a Merlot....you would use Merlot in your cooking. You can actually get some pretty inexpensive local wines at reasonable prices....don't be afraid to cook with wine even though you don't drink it.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 Canned or homemade beef broth, herbs, etc to flavor. I have a tendency to smell the seasonings and herbs and smell what I am cooking and if they smell GOOD together then in it goes. LOL It's like I can smell the results in my brain. Talk about being hardwired!

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 Almost anything. Water will work. Broth. Soup. 12 oz can of Beer. Water/soy sauce mix. Can of tomatoes w/it's juice. A bottle of chili sauce. Cider vinegar - although I'd do a mix with water here . Pam in Niceville Re: crockpot roast What could you use instead of wine for the crock pot liquid?

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 I refuse to cook with wine, or eat anything that is cooked with wine. Not only am I a non-drinker, but I swear I can taste the alcohol in the food. My husband says I am nuts. But I literally gag when I have tried to eat a fish fry with beer batter. And I tell my husband straight up that he can't fool me when we have a roast that I KNOW he used wine in. LOLOL boy does that tick him off, he thinks he is sooooo smart and sneaky!
