WITH BEER AND OF BEER, OR MY TOP 5 SNACKS.

This time it will be quite an express. I decided to show you my Top 5 appetizers to beer (and with beer of course :)). Making each of them is very easy, and in addition I guarantee you that in most cases it will not take you more than 10-15 minutes. So - get to work! :)




1. Pretzels in caramel - The buckwheat honey

We make caramel except that at the end we add some beer. Beer with a slightly sweet taste, or simply flavored beers works best.


2. Żywiecka sausage in Jak W Dym

The sausage cut into slices, throw on the hot, dry (!) Pan. Then we pour beer at the height of approx. 1 cm and occasionally turning sausage, wait until the beer boils out completely.


3. Cheese dip - Żytorillo

So, the absolute hit! However, one should be careful not to add too much beer - just a little bit, and you get perfect focus, and even bitterness (but nice - very similar to that which occurs in long-ripened cheese).

Put cheese melted, add approx. 50-100 ml of beer. We are waiting until everything is melted and create a homogeneous mass. Then season with paprika. Can be served with nachosami, rusks, bread, cold cuts ... with anything:>


4. Olives in beer batter - Skalak 12

Cake - basically ingredients "by guess" - to the two mixed eggs pour a cup of flour and a glass of beer. Grind it so that there are no lumps. Dip olives in a batter and fry in deep fat.


5. Peanuts in batter - Paulaner Salvator

On a dry frying pan roast peanuts, pour a beer (half a cup) and add enormous amounts of hot peppers. Roast until beer evaporates.


HOME BEER - BRUSCHETTA

HOME BEER - BRUSCHETTA





As I suffer recently to lack of time, I decided to create something quick. And this is the way I went back toward my beloved Italian cuisine.
Bruschetta, is a typical Italian dish that does not require a lot of time, effort, and skill, but the effect is to die for! It is simply baked bread / roll / baguette, seasoned with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and rosemary and 'stuffing' which is put on top. Usually these are tomatoes, garlic, basil, but we decided to take advantage of something more unusual and special for you today, here's a bruschetta with pumpkin and pear.
Where's the beer? Of course, stuffing! Pumpkin podsmażyłam first, I added a drum, poured beer and choking simmer. It worked great!
What kind of beer? It's hard to say exactly because I took advantage of the kindness of home brewer and cooked on dark beer. It supposed to be a stout, but due to the slightly elevated acidity it was rather little drinkable and in my opinion tasted more like a porter.


ingredients:
250 ml of beer
2/3 medium-sized pumpkin
2 pears
2-3 baguettes
Green pepper (whole), basil, oregano, salt, garlic

recipe:
Peeled pumpkin and pear cut into cubes, fry until pumpkin is tender, add the beer. Cook on low heat for 15-20 minutes. Season generously. Cut baguette into slices, sprinkle with olive oil, put the stuffing. Put everything in the oven preheated to 200 degrees for 4-5 minutes.
