    Does anyone know where I can find a cooking product, cooking sherry? It's not like regular sherry, it has a high salt content and is actually labelled "cooking Sherry" on the front. It's great for seasoning some soups, for example. This is easy to find in the US, but I've never been able to find it in Ireland. Thanks!

    Any food wholesaler will do it. The reason it has a high salt content is to stop chefs from guzzling it. Same with cooking brandy

    That may be an added benefit but the primary reason for the seasoning is that it can be sold as a food/sauce so it doesn't attract alcohol duty.

    Supervalu Blackrock have it.

    Or you could buy your own preferred sherry or marsala and add salt directly.

    Aldi have a cheap manzanilla sherry at the moment for 3.99. Perfect for cooking (or drinking)

    Manzanilla doesn't keep though, unlike sweeter sherries. Andalucians would say it starts going off as soon as it leaves Sanlucar....
