[Sca-cooks] Verjus

[Elaine Koogler]

Yeah, we don't have any stores close by other than a couple of gourmet 
stores (Trader Joe's up in Annapolis, Whole Foods, also in Annapolis, 
and Woodburns, a family store that turned gourmet when Food Lion moved 
in).  And none of these carry anything that even remotely resembles 
either  verjus or sour grape juice.  Olwen was going to try to find some 
for me up in Baltimore, but even her source appears to have dried up.  
And, having used the real stuff, I really don't want to go back to the 
mixture of white wine and white wine vinegar that I had devised to 
approximate the taste.
