- 4
- Yields:
-
500 grams
- Serves:
- 12-14
ingredients
-
SOLUTION
- 1⁄2 cup cold wheat beer (115 g or 115 mL) or 1/2 cup water (115 g or 115 mL)
- 14 g sodium citrate
-
CHEESES
- 3 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated (200 g)
- 3 cups mozzarella cheese, grated (180 g)
directions
- Preheat the oven to its lowest temperature.
- Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat, or lightly oil the sheet, and place it in the oven to warm while you prepare the cheese.
-
SOLUTION:
- Combine beer or water with sodium citrate in a pot. Stir until dissolved. Then bring to a simmer over medium heat.
-
CHEESES:
- Add the grated cheeses gradually to the simmering liquid. Use an immersion blender to blend in each addition until it has melted and is completely smooth.
- Pour the liquid cheese mixture onto the warm baking sheet. Tip the sheet as needed to form an even layer. Alternatively, pour the cheese into a mold coated with cooking spray. (A silicone tart mold would form 3 1/8-inch diameter circles).
- Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until fully set, at least 2 hours.
- Cut into rounds or squares 7.5 cm or 3 inches across. Place plastic wrap or parchment paper between the slices to prevent them from sticking together, and store refrigerated or frozen.
