TILLAMOOK BEER CHEESE SOUP
This is from the Tillamook Cheese Factory - some of the best cheese in the world!!!!! Of course I'm biased cause they're in my home state :-) This is my fave beer cheese soup -- you can use other cheese, just make sure it's extra sharp!

TILLAMOOK CHEDDAR AND BEER SOUP
Steps:
- Place a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the butter. Add the onion and sauté for about 10 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Transfer the onion to the slow cooker and add the celery, potato, stock, and beer. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, until the vegetables are tender. Add the Tabasco, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce and stir well.
- Using a potato masher, coarsely mash the potatoes until the soup is somewhat thickened but still lumpy. Add the cheese and stir until melted.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot, garnished with the chives and a dollop of crème fraîche if desired.
Tips:
- For a smoother soup, blend the soup in a blender or use an immersion blender until it reaches your desired consistency.
- If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this soup on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the soup is hot.
- If you like a thicker soup, add more flour or cornstarch. Start with 1 tablespoon and add more as needed until the soup reaches your desired consistency.
- Garnish the soup with fresh herbs, such as chives, parsley, or thyme, for a pop of color and flavor.
- Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread, crackers, or pretzels for dipping.
