Description
Creamy, smooth beer cheese flavored with garlic, Worcestershire, ground mustard and yeasty wheat beer makes the best party food/appetizer, perfect for lots of hungry people who love beer + cheese + dipping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound sharp yellow cheddar cheese
- 1 large garlic clove, coarsely chopped
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
- Pinch of cayenne pepper, to taste
- 3/4 cup Hefeweizen wheat beer
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Thinly sliced green onions, for garnish if desired
- Jalapeno flatbread, cut into wedges and lightly toasted
- Assorted crackers and pretzels, for serving
Instructions
- Coarsely grated the cheese using a box grater or the shredder attachment on a food processor. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the grated cheese, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, ground mustard, and cayenne. Pulse 4 to 5 times to combine. With the processor running, slowly pour in the beer, blending until a smooth mixture forms. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
