The Only White Wines You Should Use for Cooking, According to a Wine ExpertGroceries

As a Certified Sommelier and award-winning wine maker, I advise you to move past grocery store “cooking wine” in favor of moderately priced white wine for cooking (leave that $40 Chardonnay in the wine fridge for drinking).

Both rice wine and rice vinegar are widely used in Asian cooking, but they’re two very distinct products. Do you know what sets them apart, and when to use each one? While both products are made from fermented rice, the difference is in the manner in which each one is produced, as well as how they’re used. These two can easily be confused, since rice vinegar is sometimes also labeled as rice wine vinegar (which is a vinegar, and not wine).
