Beer Grissini with Sour cream onion dips

I was invited to my friend's birthday party. He is a home beer brewer. I expected lots of beer geek of his friends would come to his party. I made Grissini from beer yeast sourdough and sour cream onion dips.


Grissini tastes happy beer. I added extra beer yeast to make it strong taste. When I made sourdough starter, it smells beer... if I couldn't drink alcohol, I would be drunken with that smell.


I made them 40cm sticks!! They are loooong!! It was funny snack for the party. Everyone was surprised at looks and taste.
They taste, of course, BEER. Beer geeks were happy with beer yeast bread.


Sour cream onion dips, I stir - fried 2 onions gradually to make caramelized. Lots of onion, that is a real sour cream onion!!


I was happy with this bread. It was the perfect situation for my bread.


I had Grissini recipe here, but today, I add sour cream onion dips recipe here.
