Beer & Food
Beer has wonderful
tenderizing properties, making it an excellent choice for a marinade for
tougher cuts of meat. Baked goods using beer have a more moist texture and
a longer shelf life.
Used in a glaze
or baste, beer adds wonderful flavor to poultry and ham. In batter coatings
for fried foods, the yeast in the beer acts as a mild leavening agent, causing
the batter to puff up, as well as adding a distinctive enhancing flavor.
The hops, barley,
and/or malt flavor imparted by the addition of beer to foods will naturally
depend on the amount and strength of the beer. Dark beer, such as stout
and porter, have a much stronger flavor than a Pale Ale. A good recipe using
beer will have a distinctively light, not dominating flavor in the finished
dish.
