Using wine in cooking...question

joseysbride

What is a good substitute?  Neither of us drink wine, and I seriously don't want to go buy a whole bottle for 3/4 cup in a recipe.  What do you think?

If it calls for a red wine, you can use beef stock and if it calls for a white wine, you can use chicken stock.

I just buy the little bottles of cooking wine that are right by the vinegar.  They get used pretty quickly because they are not very big and usually are $3ish.

Ditto the beef and chicken subs. ?Or the mini bottles of wine. ?I don't like cooking wine because it's too salty for me.

beef broth for red, and apple juice for white.

Okay, duh.  I actually have this in my cupboard.  I just never use it...obviously.  LOL!
