And since it does not seem to used as a de-glazing agent, or reduced and not in the sauce for long before serving, very little of the alcohol is cooked off.

Mark - only thing I ever used EtOH for from the lab (other than its intended functions) was injecting it into oranges when we went to public events. They'd stop you and check for bottles, but didn't care about fruit!
