Beer and cheese...what's not to like? Following is a super simple recipe that I try to keep on hand for unexpected company or planned get together with friends...always a huge hit!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon of butter
4 tablespoons of whole milk or half and half
1 teaspoon of minced garlic (can be omitted)
1 cup of beer
1 tablespoon of flour
4 cups of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup of crumbled blue cheese (optional)
Directions:
-Saute onion and garlic with butter in a medium saucepan until tender.
-Stir in beer and bring to a boil
-Reduce heat to medium-low
-Stir in cheeses and flour one handful at a time until melted, stirring constantly
-Stir in milk
*If the fondue is too thick, thin down with more beer (LOL!) or milk
Transfer to dipping bowl or fondue pot and enjoy with your favorite beer bread recipe, sourdough bread chunks or favorite dippers.
Make it a Gift: Fondue warmers with the little candle in the bottom are OK in a pinch, but can scorch your fondue if not careful. Below is an electric fondue pot that allows you to regulate the heat and keep the party going all night long without worry! Under $40 right now at Amazon.com!
