Moderators Tom Denham Posted January 8, 2013 Moderators Share Posted January 8, 2013 No. Despite what some restaurants say, all of the alcohol does not cook out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snappy Shark Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I have substituted a couple of tablespoons of apple cider vinegar for red wine when cooking tough cuts of beef with a lot of success...just made pot roast from brisket this weekend and it worked like a charm! The purpose of the wine is flavor, but also (chemically) to acidify the dish. Vinegar usually does the trick (and apple cider vinegar is just the tastiest, in my opinion).

praxisproject Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 In a lot of recipes you can replace red wine with beef stock and white wine with chicken stock. It's not an exact match, but adds extra flavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaela Elmore Cogswell Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I read an interesting recipe the other day. They were subbing out 1/2 a cup of white wine that was reduced in the cooking process with a tbsp of white wine vinegar added at the end. I haven't tried it yet, but the concept seems like it would work. I'd go with red wine vinegar in place of red, personally but we all have different tastes.

glimmer Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Thanks...I figured as much, probably too tempting to open the bottle to put 1/2 a cup in the stew. I just used chicken stock/broth and tomato paste ...tastes good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy H. Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 How about the brand "Free"? It is an alcohol free wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paleo_xfit_momma Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Oooh nancy! Good thinkin'! I wonder if alcohol free wine would still be W30 compliant... Is there any added sugar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Oooh nancy! Good thinkin'! I wonder if alcohol free wine would still be W30 compliant... Is there any added sugar? Have you guys ever had this stuff? I think it tastes like butt. Seriously. I'd much rather use a vinegar in my food than this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 hehe, in Australia it's often called Clayton's wine, Claytons means a crappy imitation It has however made me wonder if we could have verjuice, which is non-alcoholic and made from grapes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
