recipe pondering
It's Wednesday, and the News & Disturber has their weekly recipe section. I've always had a policy if there's more than two ingredients in a recipe that I have never used or heard of, then it doesn't go in my "to try" pile. For the first time ever, today's edition actually has multiple recipes I want to try, but with a set of new questions. If you've never tried a spice before, and it's supposed to be the highlight of the recipe, is it worth spending that much money on a spice that you might not like and ever use again? Bottles or boxes of spices aren't exactly cheap, you know. (Can you tell I don't try a whole lot of new recipes?) AND, if a recipe calls for white wine, how drastically would it alter the taste if you used white grape juice or chicken stock? Answers anyone?

I'm a big "wine" cook, the good stuff only. If you are REALLY against cooking with wine then broth isn't too bad, try it and see what you think. And what spice are you talking about? You could look up that spice on allrecipes.com and see how many other recipes with that spice you might try. If not alot, then don't buy it:)
