can I just use this red wine for cooking onions? I guess I really won’t drink it. I’ve zero idea how or when we acquired it. Definitely some gift elements ...
The only answer is to TASTE IT and see if you want that taste in your food. If the wine is past its prime it will probably be ok (but you need to taste it to see if you want that flavor in your food). If it is vinegar you will have a very vinegary-tasting dish.
