Two different items you will change the outcome of the dish. I would stick to the recipe.
You could substitute rice vinegar for cooking sherry. Rice vinegar has a mild, sweet flavor.
No, vinegar contains no wine and tastes very different than sherry.
Yes, if an acidic factor is all you are interested in. Sherry vinegar would be the next closest substitute but the taste of dry or sweet sherry for a sauce or marinade is fairly distinctive and to a discerning palate, quite noticable.
Cooking sherry is low-quality sherry with salt added. There is no reason to buy cooking sherry. Purchase any inexpensive sherry and this will give you better control over the sodium content of your food. For a non alcoholic substitute try a mixture of vinegar, sugar and a dash of lemon juice OR a mixture of apple, cranberry and grape juice. Orange or pineapple juice can also be used.
No. Cooking wine does not contain vinegar, and would introduce too much salt.
yes you can _______ Red cooking wine would be a better substitute as sherry has a red wine base. White cooking wine wouldn't have the same depth.
No. Sherry wine is a drinkable sherry, that can be used in cooking, while sherry vinegar is used only for cooking.
You can use equal parts dry sherry/pale sherry wine; not the cooking wine... the drinking wine. :)
Yes you may be able to use rice wine instead of dry sherry,most recipes when asking for dry sherry state either or can be used.
Wine, when left exposed to air and light will eventually turn to vinegar. The ethanol (alchohol) oxidizes and becomes acetic acid. Sherry vinegar is vinegar made from Sherry wine. This oxidation process explains why red wines are best right after the bottle is opened, and decline in quality over a relatively short period of time thereafter. White wines are refrigerated, which retards the oxidation process after opening.
Sherry is a fortified wine, usually brown in color. Wine vinegars are the result of bacterial action increasing the acidity in wine while lowering the alcohol content. Sherry vinegar is a type or sub-set of wine vinegar, often sweeter that most wine vinegars, started from Sherry wine. While other types of wine vinegar often show up in vinigrettes and salad dressing, due to its sweetness and stronger flavor, Sherry Vinegar does so rarely if at all. Other types of wine vinegars include red, white, champagne etc. Sherry vinegar is often used as a substitute for sweetened rice vinegar (Mirin).
