Recipe VIDEO above. Copycat of Queso Dip (Mexican Cheese Dip) sold in jars in the US and at Mexican restaurants. Made with real cheese and stays silky smooth even when it cools! AND it reheats perfectly. Makes about 2.5 cups. IMPORTANT: Please read Note 1 regarding store bought shredded cheese.

Categories     Appetiser

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2.5 cups / 225 g Cheddar cheese, freshly shredded ((Important - read Note 1))
1 tbsp cornflour / cornstarch
1/2 tbsp / 8 g butter
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/4 small white onion, very finely chopped (1/4 cup)
375 g / 13 oz evaporated milk (1 can, not low fat)
1 small tomato, finely diced (3/4 cup) ((Note 2))
1/4 tsp each onion powder, garlic powder, cumin
4 oz / 113g can chopped green chile, fire roasted ((Subs Note 3))
1/4 cup coriander / cilantro, finely chopped
2 - 3 tbsp milk, any
Salt

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.

2/3 c. half-and-half
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 jalapeño, chopped

Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the dip is creamy. Stir in the green chilies.
  • Slow cooker method: Combine both cheeses, the half-and-half, garlic, jalapeño, and ground black pepper in the base of a slow cooker, and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high for 50 minutes, stirring once half-way through. Stir in the green chilies. Transfer to a serving bowl or reduce the temperature of the slow cooker to warm and keep covered until ready to serve.
  • Top with diced tomatoes, cilantro, and sliced jalapeño. Serve immediately.

Categories     Appetizer     Snack     Dip

Time 40m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup minced white onion (1/4 of a medium onion)
12 ounce can evaporated whole milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
8 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese, finely shredded
8 ounces softened cream cheese, diced
10 ounce can Rotel tomatoes with green chilies, drained
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2-4 tablespoons whole milk, to thin the sauce as needed
To serve:
Pico de gallo , for topping
Corn tortilla chips
Pretzel bites

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.

QUESO



Queso image

Queso, a popular Tex-Mex dip made with processed American cheese and canned tomatoes, was inspired by chile con queso, a Mexican dip of melted cheese and chiles that made its way to the United States in the 1930s and '40s. As the two-ingredient Americanized adaptation gained popularity, supermarkets began placing Ro-tel canned tomatoes near shelf-stable Velveeta cheese, and queso became mainstream. Purists will argue that any ingredient beyond American cheese and spicy diced tomatoes is unnecessary, but you can customize this recipe by adding any combination of black beans, scallions, cilantro, garlic, cumin, red-pepper flakes, oregano, lime zest or juice.

Categories     snack, dips and spreads, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (2-pound) block processed American cheese, such as Velveeta
1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes with chiles, preferably Ro-tel brand
Tortilla chips, for serving
1 cup rinsed canned black beans
3/4 cup thinly sliced scallions (about 7 scallions)
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Mexican oregano
1/4 packed teaspoon fresh lime zest, plus 2 teaspoons juice (from about 1 lime)
Minced canned chipotle chiles en adobo, to taste
Kosher salt

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.
