What kind of wine does a chicken drink?
Chateau Neuf de Peck!
Do you use good quality wine when cooking or do you just buy one of the Al cheapo cooking wines? Me? I started out many years ago with “cooking wine” but graduated to a decent wine, usually a bottle which hadn’t been finished. It did make a difference.
Found a great recipe once in a French cookbook called Chicken in Champagne. You place a whole chook inside a snug casserole dish pour over a 750 ml bottle of champagne or sparkling white wine and cook in oven.
I tell you that chicken had the best subtle flavour ever I have tasted!
Another question, no longer do I measure out the amount of wine, I just slosh some in and slosh some more if I think it looks like it needs it. Works every time.
