Sobering Up

Many choose not to have alcohol in their diet for health or religious reasons. So what can one do when they come across it in various sauces, desserts and even entrees?

Here's a little something I discovered in my quest to find decent substitutes for wine: Red grape juice is just as good as red wine.

The trick is to find a good, unsweetened variety when making sauces for savory dishes. I suppose you can also do the same with white wine. For the UAE, I found that Al Rawabi is quite good for an all-purpose 'wine', even though it has been sweetened.
