I've found that there are some ingredients that I don't use, like cooking wine, and I wanted to find some substitutions. I hit up BING to find out if there were any substitutions out there and this is what I found:
White Wine
There are several alternatives to white wine as an ingredient. Use the same amount of the substitute as the amount of white wine called for by the recipe. White wine cooking substitutes include plain water, undiluted chicken or vegetable broth, white grape juice and ginger ale.
Sweet White Wine
When the recipe asks for sweet white wine, substitute white grape juice in the same amount. Pour the white grape juice in a small glass bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of clear corn syrup. Stir thoroughly until the corn syrup is completely dissolved.
Grappa
Use an equivalent amount of white or red grape juice in place of grappa.
Gewurztraminer
When a recipe requires Gewurztraminer, combine white grape juice and lemon juice in equal parts to make the total amount of liquid called for. For example, if the recipe calls for 1 cup of Gewurztraminer, combine 1/2 cup of white grape juice with 1/2 cup of lemon juice. Place both ingredients in a small glass bowl and mix well.
Red Wine
Red wine is popular in cooking recipes. If the recipe is beef, use undiluted beef broth, red grape juice, or cranberry juice instead of red wine. If the recipe is poultry, try undiluted chicken or vegetable broth. For fish recipes, add clam juice, cranberry juice or vegetable broth. In all cases, use the same amount of the substitute as red wine.
Port Wine
Replace port wine with an equal amount of its substitute. For recipes that call for a light port, use unsweetened apple or orange juice. If the recipe asks for a heavier port, mix red grape juice with the juice from one small lime or cranberry juice with the juice from one small lemon as a substitute. You can also use thawed grape juice concentrate as a substitute for the heavier ports.
