Black Garlic and Dark Ale Beer Jelly
Black Garlic and Dark Ale Beer Jelly
Black garlic is a type of "caramelized" garlic.
During the caramelization process, the garlic flavour gets softened. As a result, there is a beautiful balance of sweet and savoury yield notes of molasses, chocolate, and dried fruit, coupled with tangy hints of balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, tamarin, and hearty mushroom/umami flavours.
We have decided to pair this beauty with the iconic Imperial Russian Stout from Wellington Brewery. Why?
The Imperial Russian Stout from Wellington has a rich and complex prune- and date-like sweetness; chocolate and coffee notes are also present. There is a lot of flavour in this beer, and the taste is influenced by the aroma - dark/dried fruits, chocolate, caramel, vanilla, and molasses.
This beer style is the perfect pairing for black garlic; they create a savoury, complex, and flavourful jelly.This Beer Jelly is the perfect pairing for Italian-style charcuterie, rillette, terrine, foie gras and game meat. It is also a great pairing with salty feta or creamy blue cheese, Parmigiano-Reggiano, pecorino, and other hard cheeses like aged Gouda.
Think aioli, mayonnaise and use it as a spread for your sandwich (steak sandwich, prosciutto sandwich, etc.) or try a new version of the deviled eggs.
And why not enjoy this delicacy with a dark chocolate mousse for a "Je ne sais quoi!"

INGREDIENTS
HOW TO STORE BEER JELLIES
Our Beer Jellies are made with natural ingredients and a low quantity of sugar. The texture is like a soft jelly. It gets softer in a warm environment and firmer when stored in the fridge.
Our Beer Jellies are “canned” as recommended for long-term storage (18 months). As a result, you should store an unopened jar standing up in a cool and dark place, away from sunlight and sources of heat. Exposure to light and heat could degrade the jelly quickly, affecting its flavour, consistency, and appearance. The pantry or a cabinet in the kitchen are the best choices.
Once you open the jar, please store the jelly in the fridge.
Remember to seal the jar tightly and put it back into the refrigerator after use. This procedure ensures the jam remains fine for a more extended period and minimizes the chances of microbial contamination that might make it spoil.
After opening a jar of Beer Jelly, our best before date is within two weeks to a month. Our beer jellies can retain their flavour and last up to a few months if properly stored.
