Default crushing fruit with a wine bottle

Only works with a cheap wine. Expensive wines have that indented, concave
bottom on the bottle which doesn't work well at all. Both types can be used
for rolling pizza dough.

You can pureé a soup the same way. Make sure it's an empty bottle or the
wine will warm up.

I use wine in my cooking all the time. Sometimes I put it in the food too.
