Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup beer
1 pound white Cheddar cheese -- grated
4 tablespoons butter -- softened
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
2 tablespoons fresh parsley -- finely chopped
1 tablespoon sweet onion -- grated
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
3 garlic cloves -- peeled and halved
In a blender or food processor, combine the beer, Cheddar, butter, chives, parsley, onion, lemon juice, and mustard. Process until blended and smooth.
Spoon one-third of the mixture into a crock or jar with an airtight cover. Push 2 garlic halves into the mixture. Add another one-third of the mixture. Insert 2 more garlic halves. Fill the crock with the remaining cheese mixture and garlic.
Cut a circle of wax paper to the size of the crock top; cover the cheese mixture with the wax paper. Seal the crock tightly. Age the spread in the refrigerator and remove garlic cloves before serving.
Variation: For a Club-Style Cheese Spread, substitute 1/2 cup brandy or cognac for the beer.
Judi's note: The author suggest aging this spread in the refrigerator for about a week before using.
