                                While many assume all alcohol evaporates during cooking, studies show that a significant percentage can remain, depending on the cooking method and duration. This fact is particularly relevant when considering sauces, which frequently include alcoholic beverages to add depth of flavor. Certain classic and even some unexpected sauces contain alcohol, making it important to be aware of their ingredients for dietary, religious, or health reasons.
