I never bother with wine now as I use the Prenzel vincon concentrates. They're alcohol free but the same taste and effect when cooking with them in place of wine. It also doesn't go off once it's opened.

Do you have to use wine in the fondue? I've never made it before but could you use a bit of stock instead? I don't use alcohol at all in cooking and if I have a recipe that needs alcohol in it I tend to use a substitute like chicken stock.]]> Sat, 19 Jul 2008 15:48:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=444032&title=cooking-with-wine#444032 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=444017&title=cooking-with-wine#444017 Author: Mel&Kel

I really want to have a cheese fondue.... and it just isn't the same without the wine in it.

Also really like lamb shanks which I cook in red wine, we have some in the freezer which will have to be eaten soon!!

DH is quite nervous about having cheese fondue because of the wine.]]> Sat, 19 Jul 2008 15:23:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=444017&title=cooking-with-wine#444017 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=442309&title=cooking-with-wine#442309 Author: Mum2L

dagster, because they use a spirits on crepes, the alcohol evaporates at a higher rate than in wine (wine has other types of alcohol in it, which have varying boiling points). They also light it as well, so it only takes about 30 seconds to burn off the alcohol. Also lighting the alcohol makes it burn off faster as well. I had a cousin who lives in France, and she told me one of her addictions was crepes when pregnant :-)]]> Thu, 17 Jul 2008 15:17:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=442309&title=cooking-with-wine#442309 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=442218&title=cooking-with-wine#442218 Author: Roksana

I would think so. They only put in enough to infuse the food, its not for the liquid so I'm sure it would be just fine. yum yum btw!]]> Thu, 17 Jul 2008 12:16:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=442090&title=cooking-with-wine#442090 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=442044&title=cooking-with-wine#442044 Author: Natalie_G

The alcohol cooks off. The boiling point for ethanol in alcoholic beverages is about 76 degrees, and when you cook, the temperature will go over 80 degrees. Just make sure you cook your food for more than 10 minutes over 80 degrees, so all of the alcohol is cooked off.]]> Mon, 14 Jul 2008 18:13:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=439460&title=cooking-with-wine#439460 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19132&PID=439458&title=cooking-with-wine#439458 Author: Maya

Hello

I wanted to get people's thoughts on cooking with wine while pregnant... I used to do quite a bit of cooking with wine before I was preggers.

I have looked it up on the internet and lots of sites say the alcohol is burnt off so it is safe but I wondered if all the alcohol was burnt off or if some stays... help!!
