White Queso Dip Like Your Favorite Mexican Restaurant Hungry Six Food

WHITE CHEESE DIP (5 MINUTE RECIPE!)

Steps:

• Combine the cheese cubes and milk (and optional water) into a large glass microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high for 5 minutes, stirring every minute. The mixture might seem watery during the first few stirs, but will come together as a nice runny dip after all the cheese is melted. Remove from the microwave and stir in the rest of the ingredients.
• Serve immediately as a dip with tortilla chips or as a sauce over your favorite Mexican dish. If using for a party dip, keep warm in a small Crock Pot.
• Combine all ingredients in a small Crock Pot. Set on low for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Once melted, reduce setting to warm.
• Store any leftover cheese dip in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until creamy and hot.

RESTAURANT-STYLE WHITE QUESO (QUESO BLANCO)

Steps:

• Warm half and half in medium saucepan over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually add cheese in small increments, whisking well between addition, allowing cheese to melt almost completely before adding next handful.
• When all cheese has been added and melted, whisk mixture vigorously over low heat. Add 1 tablespoon diced jalapeños, 1 tablespoon jalapeño juice, and 1 big pinch salt, then whisk until completely smooth.
• Taste queso and add jalapeños and/or juice as needed for more tang and spice. Stir well and constantly to prevent queso from sticking or burning. Once desired taste has been achieved, transfer queso into bowl and serve hot.
