Are cooking sherry and dry sherry the same? Thank you.

Cooking wines are loaded with sodium, whereas table wines have no salt. As for myself I prefer to use table wines when I cook.
No - they are the opposite! Sweet sherry is the one for cooking.
Cooking sherry and dry sherry are not the same at all. Cooking sherry treated with sodium to make it undrinkable. The only wine or sherry to use for cooking is one that you'd drink - your cooking is worth it!
No. Cooking sherry is way too salty, and usually costs $6. For about $10 you get a bottle of real sherry.
The cooking wines are not as flavourful as the real thing it really makes a difference have been cooking with sherry for years make a wonderful salad dressing.
