can i put red wine in our casserole and still give some to dd?

[dcb]

dh thinks not - i think i can. isn't all the booze evaporated and made harmless (but still much tastier than without)?....

Um, well I would!

Perhaps I should ask how old dd, how much wine etc... but I'd probably just do it!

Yup, you can.

Or I do anyway

Yes I think the alcohol evaporates or something.

Yes, the alcohol evaporates so it is safe. I think I did this from about 1 year old.

And yup - most alcohol evaps during cooking.

I would.
Perhaps a smaller slosh than normal, just in case?
DS is almost 2 and LOVES the white wine, cream a garlic sauce we have with mussels. Have not notice slurring of words or wobblier than normal walking afterwards!!

Oops, sorry - repeating comments! But obvious consensus is plonk in the plonk. Happy eating.

Lol, Tigana. But do you get a better night's sleep, because if so, bring on the white wine sauce!

i give my 2 a port or red wine casserole i do but i cook it very slowly over 3-4 hours and all the alchol has def evaporated

I would too. You are right that the alcohol will evaporate, it will be harmless and introduce her to a wider range of flavours. And you will enjoy it more.

thanks! v.quick. am going to be domesc godess and cook dinner while dd is asleep (erm well that's the idea anyway). that way i can eat and be in bed for 9 without feeling sick - in preparation for our 5am wakeup/

(he is a right buggar, won't eat the mussels just the sauce. But does use an empty mussel shell to scoop up the sauce in true native fashion!)

Can I come to your house for mussels??

Cute! Although mussels - yuk, but ds is quite welcome to em.

i do it and ds is just fine

booze evaporates and just leaves the yummy taste.
