Can I substitute regular white wine for prosecco?
Probably, but where are you substituting it? If it's in cooking almost definitely. Baking - something that is cooked - almost definitely. Something that isn't - might taste too strong. A cocktail - will taste ok, but won't have fizz.
What is a substitute for peach nectar?
A bellini is sparkling wine (specifically Prosecco) and peach nectar, there is no substitute. I guess you could try to make your own nectar by blitzing some canned peaches in a blender, but if you're going to buy canned peaches you may as well do down the juice aisle and get the Kern's Peach Nectar. Enjoy! Happy New Year's Eve!
What can you substitute for beer in beer bread?
The best answer will depend on why you need to make the substitution, and on the exact purpose the beer served in the recipe.Liquid - well, that’s easy, just make sure the total liquid volume of your substitute matches the original requirementBiological leavening - if this is a very old recipe, or if the recipe specified a non-pasteurized beer, then the beer was a source of yeast. There are wild yeasts in the air; adding a sponge or poolish initial step to the making of the bread, or extended its development time by renewing it (stir in a bit more liquid and flour), could do the trickMechanical leavening - the recipe might be relying on the CO2 fizz in the beer to provide some mechanical lift, if the beer gets stirred in late in the process. Another carbonated liquid with a useful/interesting/non-clashing flavor profile should work; sparkling cider (hard/non-alcoholic), champagne (same), club soda or tonic (be careful you don’t alter the acid balance of the dough; sodas are alkaline by nature)Flavor - a little malt syrup might be the perfect flavor replacement; perhaps a teaspoon of a more subtle bitters from the bar to substitute for the hoppiness of an ale. The recipe should give a clue as to the desired flavor profile.Alcohol - If the recipe needs the alcohol (not likely in bread, where gluten is kind of the purpose, but I’ve seen weirder things), then do the math to figure out how much you need. If the recipe calls for 12 oz of 5% ABV beer, then you need 0.6 fl oz of pure alcohol; I would use 1.2 fl oz of 100 proof vodka along with 10.8 fl oz of other (non-alcoholic) liquid.If the problem is “can’t use alcohol”, there are zero-alcohol beers. The residual alcohol in such a beer is so low that you can safely consider the mix/rise/bake process as to eliminate it completely. If the religious/medical/personal concern is so great that even that residual cannot be tolerated, think about why you’re trying to make “beer bread” in the first place.If the problem is “no gluten”, that’s a way deeper question, and I’m not a gluten-free baker and so lack the experience to answer. Suffice to say you’re better off posting that recipe in a question that asks “Can I make this gluten-free, or am I crazy?”.
Prosecco- sweet / dry what ?
Prosecco is an Italian white wine. Generally a dry(not sweet) sparkling wine most often made from Glera grapes (previously also known as Prosecco grapes). Glera grapes are grown and Prosecco is produced mainly in the Veneto region of Italy, traditionally in an area near Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, in the hills north of Treviso. Up until the 1960s, Prosecco sparkling wine was generally rather sweet and barely distinguishable from the Asti Spumante wine produced in Piedmont. Since then, production techniques have improved, leading to the high-quality dry wines produced today. Prosecco is known as the main ingredient of the Bellini cocktail and has more recently become popular as a less expensive substitute for Champagne.

Is Prosecco a sweet champagne?
No for various reasons. First, Champagne is a designation for sparkling wine that originates from grapes grown in the Champagne region of France. So we can change your question to “Is Prosecco a sweet bubbly?”Second, most Prosecco is rather dry. There are Champagnes at all levels of sweet to dry, but most Champagnes are somewhat less dry, more sweet than the Proseccos I drink. Veuve Clicquot is sweeter, Dom Perignon and Mumm’s Cordon Rouge are dryer.For a sweeter Italian bubbly try Moscato d’Asti or Asti Spumanti.
What type of wine is proseco?
Yes Prosecco: dry, lemony, and bubbling, is Italy's answer to refreshing, well-made, sparkling wine. Created from predominately Prosecco grapes in the northern Veneto region of Italy in the foothills of the Alps, Prosecco is light, affordable, and fun. Image Traditionally Prosecco was made as a soft, somewhat sweet wine with just a little fizz, but today's Proseccos are dry and very bubbly. Sometimes combined with a small amount of Pinot Blanc or Pinot Grigio grapes, Prosecco is made using the Charmat method rather than the Champagne method, the French method of making sparkling wine.
Precise conversion for jello (from sheets to powder)?
I want to make this fruit jello with prosecco. The recipe I got online asks for 4 sheets of gelatin (I got a 40 ounce powdered jello). Read online that 4 sheets=1 tbs of granulated. But here is where it gets confusing, the package says I have to dissolve the entire package in 1 cup of hot water and then mixing in 1 cup of cold. The recipe online says 4 sheets (1tbs) mixed in 2/3 cups of hot water and then a cup and 2/3 cups of prosecco . This recipe requires a whole lot more liquid for a lot less gelatin than the box suggests. Should I be doing something different?
