When a recipe calls for white wine, what kind do you use?!

@nana59, I had the same question last week, so I looked it up and subsequently have purchased some wine that I will use for cooking.

The article said to use chardonnay for poultry and pork, and to use pinot for seafood.

While I usually drink some type of blush wine (I have read that you should cook with what you drink), which I have used in recipes and it worked out well, I decided to buy the 4-pack of Barefoot and have already used the chardonnay. It works well with poultry.

I use whatever I have on hand. My go-to drink wines are Pinot Grigio and Savignon Blanc. I have tried some of the "cooking wines" but find they tend to be salty.

Anything I would drink. I would never, ever use a cooking wine. They are gross. As someone said, they are very salty.

What I drink is normally pinot grigio or some chardonnays so that's what I would use to cook with.

The wine added in most recipes is minimal and not missed. I just disregard putting wine in and my recipe always turns out scrumptious.

I usually use Chardonnay, because that is the type of wine I enjoy drinking. I too read that you should always cook with a wine you enjoy the taste of.
