Burgundy Wine for Cooking Substitute
What if the recipe needs wine, but you’re out of all wine? Or you’re cooking for kids? Use unsweetened pomegranate juice mixed with a splash of red wine vinegar.
It gives you acidity and fruitiness. That’s the Burgundy promise: tartness with a hug. You’ll trick your taste buds into believing you’re fancy.
Another secret: cranberry juice (unsweetened) plus a little mushroom broth. It sounds like witchcraft. It tastes like genius.
One more weirdo: brewed black tea. Earl Grey or English Breakfast. It adds tannins and depth without any booze. Your stew will be tea-soaked and delicious.
