|
|
I know I asked previously about frying without oil.
I was just wondering if it's any healthier to fry with cooking
wine, sherry, japanese rice wine, or maybe even vinegar.
Do they pose the same health problems as frying with oil?
Do they convert to fats(and possibly trans fats) at higher
temperatures? |

| Can't adequately say, but Alcohol burns off during the cooking process as a rule of thumb, but you probably just Fry in potentially negative Calories, then boost Caloric content of food in an undesirable manner. |

| Why don't you just use olive oil instead? Also, isn't too much wine bad for you? |

If you drink it yes, but as Alcohol burns off when cooking, Food cooked in wine, shouldn't cause a problem, except you're adding calories into your food, it really doesn't need.
So if there's any restauranteurs or gourmet Chefs reading this, ease off putting booze, Saturates, and marinades into food when you cook. You're sacrificng consumer health needs, for taste . |
