Uses For Leftover Red Wine

It’s no secret I like cooking with wine. I throw it in everything from short ribs to ice cream to Jell-O shots! I especially like to use Manischewitz, the chosen people’s alcohol. Sometimes, you open a bottle of wine, drink a glass or three, and then wonder. What do I do with the rest? Ooookay. More likely, you want a glass of wine on a Monday, so decide to cook with a bit so you can drink the rest! Just me? Either way, cooking with wine is fun. I’ve compiled over 30 uses for leftover red wine from some of my favorite bloggers on the interwebs! Divided into savory and sweet. How do you like to cook with wine?
