Warm, velvety, and deeply comforting, this Canadian Cheese Soup is a celebration of bold flavors and rustic simplicity. Inspired by the hearty fare of Canadian kitchens—from prairie farmhouse tables to cozy pub menus—it blends sharp cheddar, smoky bacon, and a splash of golden lager into a luxuriously smooth bowl of comfort. A touch of Tabasco and Worcestershire adds depth and warmth, while the beer (ideally a crisp Canadian lager) lends subtle complexity. It’s the kind of soup that warms you from the inside out on a snowy day—and disappears fast at any gathering.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
This isn’t just cheese soup—it’s cheese experience. The roux-based broth creates a silky foundation that carries the sharp tang of aged cheddar without heaviness. The bacon adds smokiness, the vegetables lend sweetness, and the beer? That’s the secret whisper of Canadian pride. Best of all, it comes together in one pot, with no fancy techniques—just slow simmering and thoughtful layering. Serve it with crusty bread, and you’ve got a meal that feels both indulgent and deeply satisfying.
Perfect for:
Snowy weekend dinners
Game day gatherings or hockey-night suppers
Holiday appetizer (serve in mugs!)
Repurposing leftover holiday cheese
Anyone who believes cheese should be a main course
