Not a brand for pouring, but for cooking
The kitchen bottles from Cuisine, labeled Flacons de Cuisine, are a different kind of product from the rest of this shelf. They are not bottles for pouring at the table but small flacons for the kitchen, for recipes that call for a splash of spirit.
The label wraps around to the side of the little bottle, so you can line them up like books and see at a glance what is inside. The bottle has a measuring scale: one centilitre equals a tablespoon.
We stock three from this range that belong with madeira and marsala: cooking madeira, marsala dry and marsala sweet.

Madeira and marsala are both fortified wines, and both have long been used in the kitchen. Marsala comes from the west of Sicily and goes into tiramisu and caramelised sauces, among other things. Madeira comes from the Portuguese island of Madeira and is used in sauces for meat and in soups.
The difference between the dry and the sweet marsala in this series is the amount of sugar. In the marsala rules, dry is called secco: up to forty grams of sugar per litre. Sweet is called dolce: from one hundred grams per litre. Which of the two you need depends on the recipe, not on your taste.
How do madeira and marsala differ?
Both are fortified wines: wine spirit is added during or after fermentation. Madeira comes from the Portuguese island of Madeira in the Atlantic Ocean and is matured with heat, which makes it oxidize slowly; that gives it its characteristic flavor and makes an opened bottle keep much longer than ordinary wine. Marsala comes from Sicily, has been a DOC since 1969 and matures in oak casks without that heating.
Frequently asked questions about the kitchen bottles
How many small cooking bottles with madeira or marsala does ’t Bockje have?
Three, all three immediately available: cooking madeira, marsala dry and marsala sweet. Each little bottle contains 10 centilitres.
How much is a centilitre from such a vial?
A centilitre corresponds to a tablespoon. The bottle has a measuring scale, so you do not need to measure it out.
Do I need dry or sweet marsala?
That depends on the recipe. Dry marsala (secco) has up to forty grams of sugar per litre, sweet marsala (dolce) from one hundred grams. For savoury sauces the dry one is usually called for, for desserts the sweet one. If you are not sure, give us a call.
What is the difference between cooking Madeira and regular Madeira?
The contents of this little bottle are meant for cooking; the size is geared to that. If you would rather pour madeira than use it in the kitchen, we also have regular bottles of madeira of 37.5 and 75 centilitres in stock.
How much alcohol does it contain?
According to the webshop data, 18 percent per bottle. So it remains an alcoholic drink, even if you use it for cooking.
