  • Besides tasting excellent cooled and draft in a dewy glass, Czech beer can be great in hot and cold cuisine, suitable for a number of meals using its velvety, bitterish taste to make the meals smoother and adding curious flavour. Therefore, do not hesitate to add beer to sauces, soups as well as to sweet dishes. Discover the beauty of cooking with beer trying one of our recipes.



    Beer to Water down and Baste the Meals
    Beer can be used to add curious flavour to goulash, to prepare brewer’s cabbage soup with mushrooms and cream or to be basted on chicken roasted with cabbage. Real delicacy is pork knee roasted on dark beer, to be prepared following this recipe. Moreover, beer is a great match when preparing fish: either as a basis of batter for cooking a pikeperch or for basting and stewing. If you are looking for a simple and good-tasting recipe, try carp on beer. To prepare four portions, you will need about half bottle of light beer. Season the carp with salt and pepper, pour over some beer and let stay for about an hour. Cut onion, stir fry in oil, add the carp, pour over the beer and season with ground pepper and cumin. Stew until tender and when ready, pour over some lemon juice. It should be served ideally with mashed potatoes. If you want a dessert with your afternoon coffee, try beer strudel using our recipe.
