Is dry white wine basically the white cooking wine I have?

Answer 1

NO

Dry white wine is wine with a low residual sugar content.

What you Americans call cooking wine has salt, and other preservatives, added so that someone who doesn't use wine a lot, and doesn't drink what is left after they have cooked with it, can use some and store the rest.

Answer 2

the cooking wine probably has salt in it. not fit for drinking. but if you're asking can you cook with dry white wine, of course, much better than "cooking wine." don't cook with a wine you would not drink.
