Just FWIW... My grandmother who was fresh off the boat from France 60 yrs ago, (not a professional chef), always told me to never cook with an alcohol you wouldn't drink. She was referring to cooking wines when she mentioned this, but I personally would apply it here as well.

Thank you very much for this response I know that the question was a little bit vauge, but this answer helped me solve a lot of problems I was having with my crueler recipe and the techniques that I was using.
