1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 ounces kielbasa, cut into 1/2-inch dice
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 carrots, finely diced
2 stalks celery, finely diced
1 small onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder
Pinch cayenne pepper

CHEESY BEER BREAD



Cheesy Beer Bread image

This easy bread recipe uses beer and baking powder to leaven instead of yeast, producing a loaf with a lightly crisp crust and a beautifully soft interior. A strongly flavored cheese, like sharp Cheddar or Gruyère, complements the flavors of the beer. The brown sugar isn't absolutely necessary, but it extends the bread's shelf life, keeping the interior soft even after it's been sliced. This bread is especially lovely served warm, but is also delicious at room temperature.

Time 1h30m

Yield One 9-by-5-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 9

Nonstick spray
3 cups/385 grams all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons/70 grams cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, plus 1/4 cup/55 grams melted unsalted butter, for finishing
1 (12-ounce/355-milliliter) bottle beer (1 1/2 cups), preferably a lager or ale
1 1/4 cups/140 grams shredded firm or semi-firm cheese, such as sharp Cheddar, Gruyère or fontina

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper to combine. Add the cubed butter and use your hands or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the flour until you have fine crumbs.

Brush with the remaining butter, and return to the oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, another 20 to 30 minutes.

BACON BEER CHEESE BREAD BOWL



Bacon Beer Cheese Bread Bowl image

It's bacon, beer, and lots of cheese. The Bread Bowl is made up of a fondue-like beer cheese with a bubbly, browned layer on top, tucked inside of toasted bread and served with crispy, garlic and herb topped bread slices for dipping. Not to mention, when those bread slices run out, guests can pull apart the bread bowl and eat it, too. From Host the Toast Blog. what's important about this beer cheese is that it has a good balance of liquid and solid ingredients. This allows it to melt into an even, fondue-like texture without soaking through the bread. To get that perfect consistency, whisk together beer and cream cheese, fold in shredded cheeses, and mix in a bit of cornstarch slurry as well. The cornstarch slurry ensures that when those cheeses melt and release their oils, the dip won't separate into a gloppy, curdled mess.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large Italian bread
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature

3 tablespoons olive oil
