Subbing cider for wine

[MrRook]

Last night my wife substituted some of my hard cider instead of the normal cheap wine in a chicken scarpariella recipe and it turned out WAY better.

Cider can work quite well in a number of recipes, work great with pork and a few years back I cooked a couple of pheasants in the slow cooker in cider, was really tasty.

Works well with ham too. When you boil it, use 2/3 cider 1/3 water instead of just water.
Makes good stock for Pea and Ham soup.
