  • Beer isn't just a favorite drink for many men and women — it's also great for cooking up all kinds of food and beverages. I'll be honest, I don't drink beer on its own, but I don't mind bringing to life a recipe that uses it as one of the ingredients. So here's how to make a dish from Latvian cuisine: beer soup. How do you make it? First, pour half the beer into a saucepan and bring it to a boil with the caraway seeds. Whisk the egg yolks with the sugar, thin the mixture with the rest of the (cold) beer, and pour it into the hot beer. Adding the cold mixture cools everything down, so warm it back up — but don't let it boil. The soup itself is now ready! Next, make the cheese croutons: warm the farmer cheese with the melted butter, then gradually stir in the eggs mixed with sour cream, caraway, and salt. Mix it all together and warm it again. Spread the finished cheese mixture into a buttered dish and chill it. Once it has set firmly, cut it into pieces and serve alongside the hot soup. Enjoy!
  • It's important to choose your farmer cheese carefully. A poor-quality product can ruin the finished dish, since it directly affects the texture, flavor, and end result. Pick fresh, natural farmer cheese with no off impurities or signs of spoilage (sour smell, uneven color, separated whey). Pay attention to the texture (dry, moist, smooth or grainy, soft or pasty) and the fat content as well.
  • How can you tell if an egg is fresh? Crack it into a separate bowl. First, there should be no off smell. The white of a fresh egg will be clear and clean. The yolk shouldn't run; it will be glossy, domed, and even.
