Gerupfter
Ingredients
- 8 oz Camembert
- 8 oz spreadable cheese (such as cream cheese in the US)
- ⅓ cup butter
- 2 ½ tsp sweet paprika
- 2 tsp caraway seeds
- salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ cup Dunkel lager, Weissbier, or Schwarzbier
- ⅓ sweet onion diced
- 1 small bunch chives finely chopped
Instructions
- Bring the Camembert (cut in small pieces), spreadable cheese and butter (cut in small pieces) to room temperature.
- In a mixing bowl add the Camembert, spreadable cheese, butter, paprika, caraway seeds, salt and pepper and beer and press using a fork until well mixed together.
- Start by adding only 2 tbsp of the beer and keep adding until you reach the desired consistency (should be spread like but not runny).
- Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours to firm up.
- Just before you are ready to serve take the dip out of the refrigerator and finely dice the onion. Run the diced onion under water (use a strainer) and dry off with paper towel before using.
- Add the diced onion and 2 Tbsp of the chopped chives to the dip and fold until they are well incorporated.
- Garnish with remaining chives. Serve with pretzels or thinly sliced onions and radishes or sliced rye bread.
