Ingredients

Chopped shallot 1 oz

Chopped garlic .5 oz

Olive oil .5 oz

Vegetable base 1 oz

Water 1 qt

Guinness 1 can

Heavy cream 1 quart

Roux .25 oz

Sour cream .5 lb

Shredded cheddar/jack blend

Preparation

Sautee garlic & shallot in olive oil, do not brown

Add water, base, Guinness & heavy cream Bring to slow boil, add roux Add sour cream When sour cream dissolves, remove from heat and whisk in cheese

At this point I use a shaft blender to smooth everything out. Your regular blender will work or skip the step. It just won’t be as smooth.
