BEER CHEESE FONDUE



Beer Cheese Fondue image

Soft pretzels, sliced German sausages, pickled garden vegetables, and roasted Brussels sprouts can all be dipped in this oozy cheese sauce for one amusing wintertime party. Swiss Alpine-style cheeses are the best choice for fondue, given their earthy, robust flavor and excellent melting quality. Substitute any easy-melting cheese for the Gruyère found in this recipe. Raclette, Emmentaler, Cheddar, Fontina, and Gouda are all delicious choices, and can be blended for a more complex flavor.

Dash of Worcestershire sauce
Pinch of paprika

CHEESE FONDUE MELTING POT CHEDDAR WITH BEER RECIPE - (3.9/5)



Cheese Fondue Melting Pot Cheddar with Beer Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by btaylor

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup Coors Light beer
2 teaspoons garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons dry mustard powder
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
6 ounces medium-sharp cheddar cheese
2 ounces Emmentaler Swiss cheese
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
I used half the beer and substituted milk for rest and used all cheddar, no Swiss. Ended up adding lots more milk to thin it so it was not sticky and stringy.

Steps:

  • If you are using an electric fondue pot, turn it onto medium; otherwise use a double boiler to heat up this mixture. Place beer, garlic, dry mustard, and Worcestershire sauce in the pot and combine well. Shred or cube the cheeses and toss with flour, coating the cheese well. (The flour will help thicken the sauce.) When the beer mixture is warm, add one-third of the cheese and whisk very well. Once the cheese has been incorporated well, add half of the remaining cheese and whisk in very well. Add the remaining cheese and whisk until nice and smooth. Cooks notes: If you do not wish to make this with beer, I cannot give you a suggestion for the beer other than a product like O'Doul's or a near-beer with less than 3.2 percent alcohol. The beer flavor really adds a lot to this dish. Please do not serve this dish to people who do not drink alcohol. Alcohol really doesn't fully cook out of the food. The Melting Pot uses vegetable broth in place of beer for those that do not want alcohol. It is just as good as with the beer.

BEER CHEESE FONDUE



Beer Cheese Fondue image

Another fondue that we would like to try. From Fondue by Casparek.

Provided by Vicki Butts (lazyme)

Categories     Cheese Appetizers

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

11 oz gruyere cheese
11 oz emmentaler cheese
1 tsp caraway seeds
1 tsp coriander seeds
18 oz bread (a mixture of baguette, crusty bread, and soft pretzels)
1 c light beer
1 Tbsp cornstarch
pepper, to taste
1 clove garlic
2 Tbsp kummel (caraway liqueur), or kirsch

Steps:

  • 1. Trim crusts from cheeses and grate coarsely. Finely crush the caraway and coriander seeds in a mortar. Cut bread and soft pretzels into bite-size cubes.
  • 2. Heat beer in fondue pot (caquelon) over low heat. Stir in a handful of cheese and melt, stirring constantly. Gradually add remaining cheese, continuing to stir in a figure 8.
  • 3. Whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water and stir into cheese. Season cheese with caraway, coriander, and pepper. Peel garlic and force through a press into cheese. Bring mixture just to boil, stirring, and set on fondue burner. Just before serving, stir in kummel. Spear bread on fondue forks and pull through the hot cheese.
  • 4. Other good accompaniments: Small boiled potatoes (with skin so cheese will adhere better), cubed sausage, liverwurst, or cooked ham, small gherkins, pearl onions, baby corn, mixed pickles, pickled watermelon rind, radishes, radicchio salad, and tomato salad.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality beer that you enjoy drinking. The taste of the beer will come through in the fondue, so make sure you choose one that you like.
  • Grate the cheese finely. This will help it melt smoothly and evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the fondue pot. If you add too much cheese at once, it will be difficult to stir and may clump together.
  • Keep the fondue warm over low heat. If the fondue gets too hot, it may scorch or separate.
  • Serve the fondue with a variety of dippers, such as bread, vegetables, and fruit.

Conclusion:

Beer fondue is a delicious and versatile dish that is perfect for parties or gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. By following these tips, you can make a perfect beer fondue that your guests will love.
