Recipes that use red wine??

Question

We don't drink red wine but a friend came over yesterday with a bottle and had half a glass, then she left the rest with us. Rather than throw it out I made Beef Stroganoff for dinner and added some red wine and I will make spaghetti bolognaise tonight. But I will still have half a bottle. Any one have any fantastic ideas???

Answer 2

I have always been told that once the wine is heated during cooking the alcohol evaporates leaving the flavour behind, therefore I have cooked with it for my toddler before and he has been fine and it doesn't seem to have had any effect on him what so ever :)

Answer 3

My daughter made Beef Bournguignon a couple of weeks ago and it was delicious. She served it with wide noodles (my preference)..She used boneless chuck roast very well trimmed and it was very tender. It seems her recipe was very close to the above recipe.....

Answer 4

Coq au vin is delicious. Basically, it's chicken braised in red wine with some aromatics. Delicious, easy, and economical.

Answer 5

Answer 6
