While hoppy chilled beers are usually enjoyed at the table with food, using the fermented beverage as an ingredient in your dishes can be a fun twist. Pour some of that pint into marinades, batters and sauces and allow its delicious notes to become a part of the dish.
It may have been difficult earlier to find the time to experiment but the ongoing work-from-home arrangement has made many people take the opportunity to enter the kitchen to experiment with food. After a hard day’s work or a tiring week, it is certainly a well-deserved fruit of labour. The start to the festive season is definitely another reason why people can celebrate with food.
