CHEDDAR CHEESE DIP

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 3 to 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound sharp cheddar cheese, preferably white
1 stick softened sweet butter
2 teaspoonfuls or so of Dijon mustard (or to taste)
Cayenne pepper to taste
1/4 cup or so of dry sherry
1 to 1 1/2 cups chopped toasted pecans
Garnish: finely sliced chives

Steps:

  • Grate the cheddar cheese while very chilled, but then let the grated cheese get back to room temperature. In the bowl of a food processor, whirl the cheese, butter, mustard, sherry and cayenne pepper until smooth and creamy
  • Transfer to a mixing bowl, cover and refrigerate until needed. (You can do 2 weeks before serving.) Remove from refrigerator 1 hour before serving; fold in the nuts and repack into four 1 cup ramekins of crocks. Dust with chives for garnish
  • Serve with crackers, or a crunchy vegetable like celery or fennel or jicama.

Tips:

- Use a block of white cheddar cheese for the best flavor. Shredding your own cheese will give you a fresher, more flavorful dip. - Use a good quality sour cream. The sour cream will help to thicken the dip and give it a creamy texture. - Use a variety of spices to flavor the dip. Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper are all good choices. - Be careful not to overcook the dip. The cheese should be melted and smooth, but it should not be browned. - Serve the dip warm with your favorite dippers, such as tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

White cheddar cheese dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover cheese, and it can be made ahead of time, making it a perfect party food. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and creamy white cheddar cheese dip that everyone will love.
