Rice Wine

Posted on 24. Jan, 2010 by admin in Ingredients

Shaoxing wine is the most popular Chinese rice wine, and it’s made from rice and yeast. While you can drink good quality Chinese rice wine, it’s not my cup of spirit. However, I can’t imagine cooking Chinese dishes without it! I use Chinese rice wine in everything from marinating meats to a splash in my stirfry to an entire cup in braises. You can substitute with dry sherry.
