Description

Queso is my livelihood.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Yellow Onion, Chopped
  • 1 whole Poblano Pepper, Seeded And Chopped
  • 1 whole Serrano Pepper, Seeded And Chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic, Chopped
  • ½ cups 2% Milk
  • ½ cups Half-and-half
  • ½ teaspoons Cumin
  • 1 dash Salt
  • 1 dash Pepper
  • ½ teaspoons Garlic Salt
  • ¾ pounds White Cheddar Cheese
  • 2 Tablespoons Flour, As Needed

Preparation

In a medium sauce pan, add onion, peppers, garlic, milk, half-and-half, cumin, salt, pepper, and garlic salt. Bring to a boil. Then add in white cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese has completely melted.

I had to add in a bit of flour to help the queso thicken. Add in flour as needed.

Made this the other day..was skeptical about using cheddar because it does not typically become creamy when it melts but wanted to try it as stated in recipe so gave it a whirl. Unfortunately I found it melted exactly how I expected which is not a typical queso texture. I found the queso to have very little flavor despite all the delicious onion and peppers in there. Will be trying this again but with different cheese!
