🇨🇿 Czech Republic recipe
Pivní Sýr
Pivní sýr, or beer cheese, is a bold and pungent Czech pub spread that perfectly marries two of the nation's greatest loves: cheese and beer. Aged cheese is mashed with butter, raw onion, mustard, and a splash of Czech lager until it becomes a smooth, intensely flavored paste. It is served at room temperature with thick slices of dark bread and is meant to be washed down with more beer. Simple, strong, and unapologetically rustic, it is the kind of snack that defines Czech hospoda (pub) culture.
