You look cool dumping it in there... I knew a guy that put beer on all his BBQ gave it that special twang.  4951

Because some of us can't have the alcohol, but the flavor it imparts is good. Family has told me for years, that "all the alcohol cooked out," I try it and can immediately tell when it has not, and pay for it later. Nothing tastes good on it way back up the throat and out. Been this way since I was a child and there used to be alcohol in cough syrup, didn't take too many times before my mom figured it out. I've tried throughout the years, but my body just doesn't want it. 4951

I prefer to drink while I cook.  I rarely cook with alcohol.   In Louisiana there is a saying that in the time I it takes to drink two beers you will have the perfect roux.   4951

Well as it says it only cooks off to varying degrees depending on cooking method/time, but in addition to the flavour the alcohol provides foods contain certain flavour compounds which are only soluble in alcohol, so it brings more flavour out of the food, the same applies to both fat and water, to get all the flavours out of food all three are needed. 4951

From the looks of the chart, it's doesn't.  BTW, I almost always add red wine to pasta sauce.  4951
