If you do not have white wine at home, it can be easily replaced with other ingredients in the recipe.

Lemon juice or vinegar

The optimal replacement for white wine in a recipe is an acidic ingredient.

Take some white vinegar or lemon juice.

As a substitute, apple, rice, wine vinegar are also suitable.

Do not use vinegar that is too strong in smell or taste.

Be aware that balsamic and sherry vinegar can affect the color of the dish.

Since wine has a much lower acidity level than lemon or vinegar, don't overdo it.

Other alcohol

White wine can sometimes be replaced with vermouth, sparkling, rosé or red wine.

Red wine, like balsamic vinegar, has coloring properties. Keep this in mind when cooking.

Broth with acid

The broth is also suitable as a substitute for white wine when cooking.

However, you should add the sourness characteristic of white wine with lemon juice or vinegar.

Use the same amount of broth as the wine in the recipe.

Using one of the life hacks, you can replace white wine in a risotto recipe or other dishes without visible changes.
