wine without "h".
PS the bloody Italians you are referring to, prefer drinking wine or using it for meat dishes,for instance,for risotto ( risotto with mushrooms requires white wine) and in many other recipies but NOT IN SPAGHETTI SAUCES.
No matter at all... if you like keep on pouring wine in spaghetti sauces.
Wow, now I need a glass of wine. Didn't know you would get riled up but that's the way it is on this side of the ocean. I for one, will continue to use wine and I'm sure so will several others who have responded to wine questions in their spaghetti sauce in the past. And isn't the term "bloody" a British term?
As a full blooded Italian, both parents having been born just outside of Milan, and used wine in their sauce, I am insulted. I'm taking my wine, my pasta sauce and my appetite and going home.
Bon Appetito!!
