Substituting cooking wine for normal wine in a recipe?

The recipe calls for a dry white whine, and we have a standard white cooking wine.

Does this change how I should cook the risotto? Should I still add the salt in the recipe since there's extra salt in the cooking wine?

    If it is all you have then use it. I would not add the salt you should taste it occasionally as you go. that way you won't get to much. Cooking wine is different. I don't even buy it, I go straight for the regular white and red wine. It is good in all recipes.

    I would monitor the salt, and taste it before adding more since there is some salt in the cooking wine. I don't use cooking wine anymore - I don't like the flavor very much so after several episodes on Food Network I just decided I would use regular wine and add it when called for.

    hi Leon definite, the different vinegar will additionally do - Balsamic/Malt/Palm. although, i discover the White guy made Vinegar lots greater advantageous. hence, if choosing this, use in effortless terms a million/2 the quantity as pronounced in the recipe. My appropriate wager may well be Apple Cider. this is the closest substitute to Wine Vinegar via reasonable fruity-tangy flavour. chuffed Cooking! Mrs. P.Caeiro, Seagull motel-Goa.
