I make a "sweet potato with rum dish" which is really great. Don't have a recipe just eyeball it.Karen makes bourbon balls that if you eat more than a few, you'll catch a buzz.

I occasionally add a splash of dry Vermouth to scrambled eggs.
And sometimes, I use some beer when making Beef with Beer gravy!
more wine than anything else, though, because it's so versatile.
Do you use alcohol when you cook? To my mind it is one of those ingredients which adds a deeper dimension to a dish. Oddly enough (I always think) vegan and vegetarian dishes use alcohol far less than meaty cooking. Maybe this is a legacy of the puritanical health conscious vegetarian movement back in the early part of the 20th century? Yet there are so many meatless dishes which can 'sing' if they have a little alcohol added.
I reckon that all manner of dishes can be enhanced and improved by a splash of beer, wine or spirits. Tell us which alcohols you use in cooking. And if you don't use alcohol in cooking, why not?

I have not heard it before that alcohol is also used in cooking
