TOM'S SWEET PIMENTO CHEESE

This pimento cheese is great as a sandwich, as a spread on crackers, or stuffed into celery. Our kids can't get enough of it. I like it best served as a sandwich with a big bowl of my homemade chili.

SWEET PIMENTO CHEESE



Sweet Pimento Cheese image

I was recently missing a taste from my childhood, so I went on a search, trying many recipes. I found lots of good ones, but none that tasted "just right." I decided to make my own and finally hit upon the missing ingredient. I think this makes my pimento cheese different from the others, and it brought back childhood memories! Give it a try and see what you think.

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cup(s) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
2 cup(s) monterey jack cheese, shredded
8 ounce(s) cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup(s) mayonnaise (i used duke's light)
1 jar(s) pimentos, diced, 4 oz.
1 tablespoon(s) vinegar
1/2 teaspoon(s) onion powder
1/2 teaspoon(s) garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon(s) paprika
1/2 teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon(s) sugar (i used splenda)

Steps:

  • In large mixing bowl, combine the two cheeses. Mix with your hands until the two cheeses are totally blended throughout.
  • In a medium microwave-safe mixing bowl, place the room temperature cream cheese. Cream it, using a fork or an electric mixer. If not soft enough to cream easily, microwave for 15 - 20 seconds. When smooth, add mayo, vinegar, spices and sugar. Again, cream until mix is smooth. Fold in the pimentos until well-distributed in the mix.
  • Add cream cheese mixture to the two blended cheeses in large mixing bowl. Using a fork, slowly incorporate the cheeses into the cream cheese mixture until all cheese is moistened and well-blended. Continue to blend until you achieve desired texture - anywhere from chunky to smooth - your choice.
  • You can serve immediately with crackers, celery sticks, or use in a sandwich. Or you can refrigerate and serve chilled. Flavor will intensify as it sits. Enjoy!

  • Food processor instructions: In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Process until smooth and evenly combined. Remove the blade, scraping any of the mixture back into the bowl. Switch to the grating blade. Cut the Cheddar cheese into pieces that will fit into the feed tube. With the machine running, add the cheese through the feed tube until it is all grated in. Transfer the contents of the food processor to a large mixing bowl. Add the diced pimentos and stir everything together to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. (I usually add about 1/4 teaspoon more salt, but it depends on the saltiness of the cheese.)
  • Mixer instructions: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or beaters, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Beat until smooth and evenly combined. Coarsely grate the Cheddar cheese and mix in along with the diced pimentos. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. (It's a good idea to taste the pimento cheese on the crackers you plan to serve it with, as the saltiness can vary.)
  • Transfer the spread to a serving bowl and serve with crackers and/or crudités. If serving later, cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days; bring to room temperature before serving.

  • Combine the cream cheese, drained pimentos, remaining white cheddar, mayo, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika and a pinch of salt and pepper in a food processor. Pulse and blend until combined and somewhat whipped - you don’t want to overwhip it. I pulse for about a minute off and on until it appears blended but not 100% smooth.
