Cheddar-Ale Pub Spread Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
8 oz old cheddar cheese, grated 8 oz cream cheese, softened 125 ml ale or beer 1 tsp dry mustard 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper 1/2 cup finely chopped toasted pecans 1/2 cup chopped parsley (fresh)
Recipe
Preparation
Place cheeses in food processor or blender, process until smooth. (I used a combination of by hand and an electric mixer) Gradually add ale, mustard and cayenne pepper. If mixture is soft, refrigerate until firm enough to hold shape. Mould into a disc shape ( a sphere or ball!!). Combine pecans and parsley. Pat the mixture onto the ball or roll the ball in the mixture until the cheese mixture is covered completely. Place on a serving plate or board and surround with crackers or flatbreads. Slices of apple are nice with this too.
This is an easy thing to make and is very tasty.
