    2 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons flour
    1 cup milk - use whole milk for a richer flavor
    8 ounces melty cheese - processed American cheese melts best for nacho cheese, but cheddar is great for flavor - you can easily add more cheese for cheesier nacho cheese

    @michaelastandley8531 Год назад +19

    Hiya. It’s nice to see your making this with a roux. If you get the chance try this with a Canadian cheddar. It’s a really bold sharp cheddar that lends itself to sauces well. Also sub the milk for a dark beer such as a good German variety. American beer won’t work-I tried that when I lived in the States, it was not good. If not using Jalapeños try adding English Mustard for extra heat. This goes well with chips or over cauliflower or salmon. From Chesterfield.

      Dark beer makes it a fondue, that’s not a bad thing but it’s just different from cheese sauce. Beer and wine don’t have the same emulsification qualities.

    • @ChiliPepperMadness
      @ChiliPepperMadness  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks! This definitely firms up a bit when it cools, so it's really best to keep it warm if possible. I like to keep it in a small crockpot. You can try to add extra liquid to make it very thin for squeeze bottles, though not sure how well that would work out. You might try a simple water bath to warm the bottles, or even a gentle nuke. =)

    There are many great things regarding processed cheese, one being your demonstration here. Over the last 3 years, I've purchased the zesty cheese sauce over the internet and enjoyed some yummy nachos. I added the standard small can of chilis, great stuff. Processed cheese is #1 for me on a cheeseburger, a diner omelet, grilled cheese, etc, the list goes on. 😋

      It does help, making it a bit looser, though it can still harden up a bit after time. Easily fixed with a bit of liquid swirled in over heat.

      Sonu, it's best served fresh, but you can store leftovers in the refrigerator. When you want to warm it up again, you can heat it in a pot on the stove, then swirl in a bit of milk or cream to get it nice and creamy again. I hope this helps.

      @wsams 6 месяцев назад

      Sounds crazy but try a microwave sometime. I make cheese sauce like this. In a bowl add a pinch of cornstarch - like 1/4 tsp. Add a Tbsp butter. Heat in microwave 1 minute. Stir. Add about a quarter cup of milk. Heat again for 2 minutes. Open and stir when the milk gets close to boiling over. Close and repeat. Then add about a half cup of cheese (I use Mexican shredded), a quarter tsp lemon juice, pinch of xanthum gum if you have it, and stir until smooth. That's it. Perfect creamy cheese sauce in the microwave.
      PS. This method works great for southern gravy. Easiest method, and hard to burn. ❤
