I’m allergic to wine…

   Posted by: michy   in General

Honestly, I don’t drink wine.  This is because I get rashes and have a very bad headache the day after I drink wine.  But, one thing is for sure though, I love the aroma it brings to the food that I cook.  And when one is done cooking, you can sense a bit of a fruitty after taste after each bite.  And I don’t get any rashes after I eat dishes with wine in them.  So yeah, I guess I am just allergic to the alcohol content of wines.  I have tried different kinds of wines for the dishes that I cook.  And right now, what I have in our pantry is a semi-sweet white wine.  I like this wine in making pasta sauces for it’s sweet.  I don’t know if that conforms to the law of cooking for professional chefs but you know how Filipinos are… We like our pasta sauce to be a bit sweet.  I also used this wine to cook my favorite dish…  Beef Caldereta!  I guess you can consider this wine as my wine of the month!
