Beer Cheese Soup in a Bread Bowl with Kielbasa

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

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
4 small round boules (about 7 inches each)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups chicken stock, warmed
1 bottle pale ale, pilsner or lager
3 cups sharp yellow Cheddar, shredded
5 ounces Gruyere, shredded
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and cook until browned and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion, garlic, mustard powder and cayenne. Cook the vegetables until tender and translucent, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the bread bowls. Using a sharp knife, slice the top off of each boule to use as a topper. Hollow out the middle with a fork or your fingers, leaving a thick bread shell. Save the removed bread for another use.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Add the Dijon mustard and Worcestershire. Pour in the stock and beer and simmer until the alcohol cooks out, about 5 minutes.
  • Puree the soup with an immersion blender until smooth. Add the Cheddar and Gruyere and stir until the cheese is melted. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into the bread bowls and serve immediately, topped with the kielbasa croutons and chives. Use the bread toppers for dipping, if desired.

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.

Time 50m

Yield 1 loaf, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large Italian bread
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
8 ounces lager beer, plus 1 tablespoon, divided
1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
8 ounces swiss cheese, shredded
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
10 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup chopped mixed herbs (such as chives, parsley, and dill)
3 tablespoons olive oil
chopped chives, to top

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Slice off the top of the bread. Hollow out the inside of the bread to create a bowl. Save the top of the bread for later.
  • In a large bowl, combine whisk together the softened cream cheese and 1 cup of the beer, until well-combined. Combine the remaining tablespoon of beer with 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Add the cornstarch slurry, the whole grain mustard, and the Worcestershire sauce to the cream cheese mixture and whisk again to combine. Fold in the shredded cheeses, then fold in the bacon. Fill the bread bowl with the cheese mixture. Transfer the bread bowl to a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Slice the top of the bread that was cut off earlier into thin pieces, and place them on the baking sheet, crust-side up.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, herbs, and olive oil. Spoon or brush the herb mixture onto the tops of the bread slices.
  • Bake the bread for 5 minutes, or just until the cheese is melted, stir, and continue to bake until the cheese begins to brown on top, about 30 minutes. If you notice that the bread slices begin to brown too much, cover them with foil as the beer cheese finishes cooking.
  • Top the dip with chopped chives and serve warm with the bread slices, broccoli, and pretzels.

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.
  • Add the beer and mix until thoroughly combined. Fold in the shredded cheese. Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread into an even layer.
  • Brush about 1/3 of the melted butter over the surface of the loaf and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, brush with more butter, then return to the oven for another 20 minutes. 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. (The internal temperature should read at least 200 degrees on a thermometer.)
  • Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes, then run a small offset spatula around the edges and unmold. Cool at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips:

  • Use a sturdy bread bowl. A sourdough or French bread bowl will hold up well to the hot beer cheese.
  • Make sure the bread bowl is big enough. You want to have enough room for the beer cheese, plus some bread to dip.
  • Use a good quality beer. The beer flavor will come through in the cheese, so use a beer that you enjoy drinking.
  • Don't boil the beer. Bringing the beer to a boil will drive off the alcohol and ruin the flavor.
  • Use a slow cooker on low heat. This will help to prevent the cheese from burning.
  • Stir the cheese frequently. This will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Serve the beer cheese with a variety of dippers. Pretzels, bread cubes, and vegetables are all good choices.

Conclusion:

Beer cheese in a bread bowl is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for parties or game day. It is also a great way to use up leftover bread. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make this tasty dish that is sure to be a hit.
