Cheddar Cheese & Beer Soup image

The taste of beer is subtle, but it's just enough to complement the cheese in this rich and creamy soup. For a slightly sweeter version, you can use apple juice instead of beer. -Holly Lewis, Swink, Colorado

CHEDDAR CHEESE BEER SOUP



Cheddar Cheese Beer Soup image

This recipe comes from the Bobby Mcgee's Conglomeration restaurant that was in the north-Houston area in the early 1970s ( think dance floor with disco ball!!). Sadly, the restaurant is no longer there, tho I think it still exists in other areas,but the owner/chef was kind enough to give this recipe to a local church for use in their cookbook.

CHEDDAR BEER SOUP



Cheddar Beer Soup image

Extra-sharp Cheddar and malty English ale balance perfectly in this hearty soup.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Beer     Cheese     Appetizer     Cheddar     Gourmet     Cheese Week

Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 medium leeks (white and pale green parts only), cut into 1/4-inch dice (2 cups)
2 medium carrots, cut into 1/4-inch dice (1 cup)
2 celery ribs, cut into 1/4-inch dice (1 cup)
2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
1 Turkish or 1/2 California bay leaf
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1 3/4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (14 fl oz)
1 (12-oz) bottle ale such as Bass
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lb extra-sharp Cheddar (preferably English; rind removed if necessary), grated (4 cups)
4 bacon slices (3 1/2 oz total), cooked and crumbled

Steps:

  • Wash leeks in a bowl of cold water, agitating water, then lift out leeks and drain in a colander.
  • Cook leeks, carrots, celery, garlic, and bay leaf in butter in a 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to moderately low and sprinkle flour over vegetables, then cook, stirring occasionally, 3 minutes. Add milk, broth, and beer in a stream, whisking, then simmer, whisking occasionally, 5 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, and pepper.
  • Add cheese by handfuls, stirring constantly, and cook until cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes (do not boil). Discard bay leaf.
  • Serve sprinkled with bacon.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beer: Use a flavorful beer that you enjoy drinking. Dark beers, such as stout or porter, will give the soup a richer flavor, while lighter beers, such as pilsner or lager, will result in a more delicate flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this soup, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Sharp cheddar or extra sharp cheddar are great options.
  • Shred your own cheese: Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent it from melting smoothly. Shredding your own cheese ensures that it will melt evenly and create a creamy soup.
  • Don't boil the soup: Boiling the soup will cause the cheese to curdle. Bring the soup to a simmer over medium heat and stir constantly until the cheese is melted.
  • Serve the soup immediately: Beer and cheddar cheese soup is best served immediately after it's made. The soup will thicken as it cools, so if you need to make it ahead of time, reheat it over low heat until it reaches the desired consistency.

Conclusion:

Beer and cheddar cheese soup is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful soup, give this recipe a try.
