The Shaoxing Redemption: Yes, you can use dry sherry in place of Shaoxing (shaow-SHEEN) wine, but we recommend adding this fragrant, deeply nutty wine to your pantry--you can experiment with it in stews or other recipes calling for winey flavor. Look for it in Asian markets, where a 750-ml bottle goes for between $4 and $ But beware of bottles labeled "Shaoxing cooking wine"--the cooking variety has salt added.
