Wine in food - in early pregnancy....

[auntyspan]

I'm cooking Beef and Red Wine stew on Friday night. I'm 5 weeks pregnant and I'm a tad concerned about the alcohol. It's going to cook for 3 hours - all the alcohol will have burned off by then shouldn't it??

I think the cooking will burn off the alcohol as alcohol has quite a low boiling point compared to water.

Oh god, yeah....can't remember what temp it evaporates out at, but it's well below water's boiling point.
Don't give it a 2nd thought.

avenanap...snap!

Coolio thanks ladies

this doesn't apply to the rest of the bottle, though...............

Darn it!!
