Beer Cheese Dip in a Bread Bowl

Ingredients:

  • 1 round loaf of dark rye bread
  • 1 C beer
  • 1 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 Tbsp water
  • 2 C cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1 oz cream cheese, cut into pieces
  • 1 oz blue cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce


  • Directions:

    • To make the bread bowl, slice the top inch off of the rye bread. With a serrated knife, remove the soft inner part from the loaf, leaving about 1 inch of thickness at the sides and bottom. Tear the removed bread into chunks for dipping.
    • Over medium heat, simmer 1 C beer in a medium saucepan.
    • Meanwhile, whisk together cornstarch and water.
    • Add the cornstarch mixture to the beer and cook, whisking, until slightly thickened, about two minutes. Lower the heat and wisk in 1/2 C at a time, allowing each addition to melt before adding the next: cheddar cheese, cream cheese, blue cheese, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce.
    • Pour the dip into bread bowl and serve hot.
