QUESO DIP (MEXICAN CHEESE DIP)

Steps:

• Place cheese and cornflour in a bowl, toss to coat.
• Melt butter over medium heat in a large saucepan or small pot.
• Add garlic and onion, cook slowly for 3 minutes or until onion is translucent but not browned.
• Add tomato (including juices) and cook for 2 minutes until tomato is slightly softened.
• Add evaporated milk and cheese. Stir, then add chiles and Spices.
• Stir until cheese melts and it becomes a silky sauce.
• Add salt to taste - amount required depends on saltiness of cheese used - and stir through coriander.
• Stir in milk or water to adjust consistency (I use 2 tbsp) - the dip thickens when it cools, and milk can be added later to adjust to taste.
• Remove from heat. Serve warm or at room temperature - it will be soft and scoopable even when it cools.
• Store in the refrigerator. When refrigerated, it becomes the consistency of the cheese spread sold in jars that are not in the refrigerator section. Reheat in microwave and adjust consistency as desired with a tiny bit of milk. If you add too much, just put on stove again until it thickens.

QUESO

Steps:

• Roughly chop the processed cheese into 1-inch cubes, then add to a medium saucepan. Stir in the tomatoes and their juices, plus 2/3 cup water, then heat over medium-low, stirring frequently, until cheese is melted and mixture is creamy, 5 to 7 minutes. You can stop here, and serve immediately with chips, or proceed to Step 2, if you're feeling extra.
• Stir in any combination of desired additions: black beans, scallions, cilantro, garlic, cumin, red-pepper flakes, oregano, and lime zest and juice. Heat over low, stirring occasionally, until warmed and flavors meld, about 5 minutes. If you like some extra heat, stir in chipotle chiles en adobo. Season to taste with salt, and additional red-pepper flakes, if desired, and serve immediately. (You could also keep your queso in a slow-cooker on a low setting, stirring occasionally, to keep it molten.) Mixture will keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.

QUESO DIP

Steps:

• Put the cilantro, onions and pickled jalapeno if using on a cutting board, and chop them into a rough mixture.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, and stir until it is absorbed. Pour in the beer and milk; whisk constantly until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir in the Monterey Jack until completely melted and smooth.
• Transfer the queso dip to a warmed serving dish, a fondue pot or a small slow cooker set to warm or low. Sprinkle the cilantro mixture on top, and sprinkle with a little chipotle powder if using. Serve with tortilla chips.

WHITE QUESO DIP

Steps:

• In a double boiler on low heat (enough to keep a gentle boil), add the cheese and some of the half and half.
• Stir mixture until cheese begins to evenly melt, adding half and half to result in the consistency you desire. (It should be thin enough to flow well, but thick enough to stay on a chip).
• Add diced jalapenos to mixture, according to your preference. If they are from a jar, add a teaspoon or two of the juice as well.
• Begin to add the spices. Start with the cumin and black pepper. Add red pepper gradually, tasting along the way. A little goes a long way, so be sure you don't make it too hot. I use a bit more than 1/4 tsp, you may use more or less.
• Add a pinch of chili powder, and serve hot with tortillas or chips.
• Leftovers can be microwaved (add more half and half or water to keep consistency). Don't worry about yellowing from day to day (due to spices/cheese), it will be good for 4-5 days.

QUESO DIP

Steps:

• Top and serve: Once the vegetables are fully incorporated and warmed through, about 5 minutes, transfer the queso to a slow cooker. You can also serve it straight from the pan. Top with a generous serving of pico de gallo accompanied by warm corn tortilla chips or pretzel bites.
• Thin as needed: The queso will thicken as it sits. If you find it's getting too thick, whisk in a couple of tablespoons of whole milk to thin it. Serve it straight from the pan kept over low heat on your stove or transfer the queso to a slow cooker set on warm. Stir the queso frequently to prevent a skin from forming on the surface of the dip.

(The bowl should be big enough to rest above the rim of the pot without the bottom touching the water.) Add both cheeses, the half-and-half, garlic, jalapeño, and ground black pepper, then stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the dip is creamy. Stir in the green chilies.
