I make a "sweet potato with rum dish" which is really great. Don't have a recipe just eyeball it.Karen makes bourbon balls that if you eat more than a few, you'll catch a buzz.

I occasionally add a splash of dry Vermouth to scrambled eggs.
And sometimes, I use some beer when making Beef with Beer gravy!![]()
more wine than anything else, though, because it's so versatile.
Do you use alcohol when you cook? To my mind it is one of those ingredients which adds a deeper dimension to a dish. Oddly enough (I always think) vegan and vegetarian dishes use alcohol far less than meaty cooking. Maybe this is a legacy of the puritanical health conscious vegetarian movement back in the early part of the 20th century? Yet there are so many meatless dishes which can 'sing' if they have a little alcohol added.
I reckon that all manner of dishes can be enhanced and improved by a splash of beer, wine or spirits. Tell us which alcohols you use in cooking. And if you don't use alcohol in cooking, why not?

I have not heard it before that alcohol is also used in cooking
