Because it's still basically fruit juice with alcohol and salt? I mean, if you want those things in your food, why not? On the scale of weird stuff people eat (including some of the examples in this thread) salted low alcohol wine doesn't seem that bad.

What the hell are you even talking about. There absolutely is Cooking Wine, as opposed to just wine you drink. Cooking Wine is usually crappy, which is why you cook with it (mixed with herbs and tomatoes or whatever) instead of drinking it. Wandle Cax is absolutely correct when he says you don't drink Cooking Wine (because it's poo poo to drink, you see). What the hell!

http://winefolly.com/review/choose-cooking-wine/

Here's an actual related LifeHack: Teens can buy cooking wine to drink because it isn't controlled by the Liquor control board, it's a viewed as a sauce or vinegar (in some countries I guess).


No one under the age of 100 uses that stuff and no one who cooks even halfway respectably would ever touch it, that's what we're all laughing about, glad you could make it. He might as well dump Gatorade in there.

Haha so now your argument is what, that "Cooking Wine" is a varietal? I sincerely hope you're like nineteen. I'd be put off by how smug you are if it wasn't so goddamn cute. Please never serve adults your cooking.

I'm not sure why you're being such an rear end in a top hat about this, but if a recipe calls for "dry white wine," and you don't like dry white wine, it's entirely possible you'll have wine leftover you have no interest in drinking.

Also, I'm not going to use a bottle of say, the Del Dotto clay cask Red Zin in my cooking, because that's loving ridiculous when an $11 bottle of decent but not as good will do just fine.

Then don't cook things with ingredients you don't like, genius. Or if there's a gun to your head about it for some reason, use decent wine and give the leftovers to someone who likes it. You can namecheck wines you googled while typing up your posts all you want, you're still the guy who's arguing for dumping Hobo's Choice into food you intend for people to eat and getting mad that everyone else isn't impressed by you.

:psyduck: It was just an example because it's what I'm drinking tonight, if I were going to "namecheck" I'd name something more than like $50.

Also, not sure if you're aware, but something being cooked with white wine doesn't taste the same as drinking a glass of white wine. Wine wine in poultry dishes isn't an uncommon thing.

It's glorious you think you're the only person in this thread who knows anything about wine or cooking.

I like that people have been cooking with wine pretty much ever since wine was invented, doing this poo poo with clay pots around campfires, and internet jerkwads will still argue for days about how the way they do it is the ONLY RIGHT WAY :argh:

Goddamn. It's cooking, not rocket science.

Yes, because when they wake up to see you looming over them dripping sour poo poo into their mouth, the first thing they're going to think is 'hm i should turn over'. This is more a life(ending by getting)hack(ed to pieces)

Ugh, that reminds me of all the questionable at best Chik-fil-a copycat recipes that went around during the whole anti-gay boycott.

Chicken pretty much never needs a tablespoon of powdered sugar, IMHO.

I'm not arguing on behalf of (overly salted, poo poo quality) cooking wine, I'm arguing on behalf of it being 100% reasonable for you to have wine just for cooking that you are unwilling to drink.

I'm not trying to impress anybody, you're just coming off as really hostile for something that isn't unreasonable at all. Your responses to me have only made your attitude more apparent.

drat, you're all being stupid and wasteful talking about pouring out "leftover" wine from cooking. Just mix that poo poo with some cola and gulp it down. Put a lime squeeze in it if you want to be all fancypants. Also, you can keep the wine in the fridge for weeks and still use it in your pepsi wine cocktail, you won't notice any taste degradation. Woohoo, callback to the first wine derail, YEAH! :dance:

That would look like poo poo, clog your pores, and oh yea, both nutmeg and cinnamon are skin, mucus membrane, and eye irritants. So yea, brush that poo poo all over your face. Christ, you can buy bronzer at the dollar store if you're that goddamn simultaneously poor, vain, and pale.

So basically all they did was pick out powdered substances by their color with zero consideration for how they would affect your skin.

So does buying a case not net you any sort of discount? Even the cheapest wines at Dan Murphys are cheaper if you buy six, and even more so if you buy twelve.
