Default Replacing wine in recipes.

Hi, I've just started my programme and I've scowered my old recipe books for recipes that only have the ingredients I'm allowed on my Cohens Diet. One or two of them are perfect except for the fact they use red or white wine in the cooking process. Does anyone know of a substitute allowed on the programme or has anyone asked their clinic?
thanks! xox

Why don't you substitute red wine with watered down red wine vinegar. In Singapore you couldn't tell the difference anyway (for bottles of 25 dollars or less, which is all I can afford)
Similarly, you can use white wine vinegar to replace white wine.
Can you share those recipes? Would be very grateful.
Thanks,
Marc

I found cooking with Sprite Zero is a go-er!

Same as Kim.. Sprite Zero is awesome in almost everything.. you could try diet coke too I spose?? But I'm a fan of the sprite myself.

I found Balsamic Vinegar the best of all.

if the recipe/s are using white wine, then I usually replace with Maggie Beer's verjuice...it's available in most deli's and at some Woolworths.

Red wine vinegar and a little sweetner could be used instead of the red wine perhaps.

happy cooking!
Eve
