I’m making a risotto milanese. The recipe specifies I should use a dry white wine. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what kind of wine specifically I should get? I never drink white wines and so I’m white wine clueless! I don’t want to spend a whole lot of money; I’m cooking with it, after all. Any advice is great!
Thanks everyone!
I ended up with a 10 dollar pinot grigio (that actually came from Italy, wonder of wonders). It seemed like a good compromise. I don’t drink much white wine (just red), so thanks for all your suggestions.

I found a recipe for cheese fondue that requires a dry white wine. Which white wine should I use?
D.A. -

I’m thinking under if I’m just going to cook with it.

I’m not a fan of drinking wine, but I enjoy the flavor it adds to dishes when it is used in the cooking process. I’m planning on making a chicken dish with swiss cheese for dinner tonight and would like to substitute a dry white wine for the water my recipe calls for. Problem is, I have no idea what to look for. I know the general rule is not to cook with a wine you wouldn’t drink. Whats a girl to do if she doesn’t drink wine in the first place?
