What can you substitute for red wine in a meat marinade?

Answer 1

For one teaspoon of vinegar use 1 teaspoon lemon or lime juice OR 2 teaspoons white wine
The best answer will depend upon the recipe you are making. Basically, any other vinegar can be substituted for the acidity, though white wine vinegar is slightly less acidic than white vinegar. If color matters, you will want to choose a light color vinegar, and avoid balsamic or red wine vinegar. In many recipes, red may be substituted for white and vice versa, with a similar flavor achieved. If the tangy flavor of the white wine vinegar is what is needed in the final product, you may want to try white vinegar with a touch of lemon juice. In others, the milder, sweeter taste of wine vinegar is desired and you may want to add a bit of sugar to white vinegar to substitute it.

Answer 2

It would depend on what the vinegar is being used for. For example, you can substitute any type of vinegar when making salad dressing. If a recipe calls for white wine vinegar you can usually safely substitute red wine vinegar. But never be afraid to experiment when cooking because that's the best part about it.

Answer 3

Wine is used in recipies due to its higher acidic levels. You may try in its place an unsweetend juice made from white fruits like apples or white grapes. Most grocery stores that carry healthier food alternatives can be a great source to find these juices.

Answer 4

Any other mild white vinegar like apple cider vinegar, rice wine vinegar, even just plain white vinegar would work.
