Beer Schmierkase

How to make Beer Schmierkase Recipe - The Shakers made a kind of cottage cheese, schmierkase, which they spread along with dark apple butter on slices of homemade bread.

Makes about 4 cups

Ingredients:
2 to 3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon hot-pepper sauce
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup dark beer
4 cups (1 pound) shredded cheese, may be sharp Cheddar or a
combination of cheeses

Method:
In the small bowl of an electric mixer or in a food processor fitted with the steel blade, combine garlic, Worcestershire sauce, pepper sauce, mustard and salt. Slowly blend in beer, then blend in cheese, a little at a time.

Beat until mixture is smooth. Pack into a 2-cup container. Cover and refrigerate overnight or longer before serving. Serve with crisp croutons or crackers, chunks of celery or wedges of crisp apple.

Note:
Save bits and ends of cheese pieces in the freezer until you have collected enough to make this spread.
