Cooking question

[elendiari22.livejournal.com]

I'm making a chicken dish for dinner tomorrow, and it calls for a cup of white wine. My question is, is there a non-alcoholic substitute for white wine? I was thinking white grape juice, but I figured that since this is a cooking community, I'd do better asking than assuming. Anyone know?

The deep irony is that when we finally got to the grocery store and I mentioned the wine substitutes, my mom gave me a puzzled look and said, "We have red and white wine at home for cooking, in the fridge." So that was that. We're using the real thing. :)

Whew. (I thought the objection was to cooking with alky-hol, not the lack thereof.)

I just finished seething a bunch of fresh vegetables into a ratatouille (loaded with fresh basil and a cup of Merlot).

My family doesn't drink wine, but we cook with it. I just didn't want to have to go to the store and buy a bottle of the stuff, and so was looking for loopholes. :)
