CHILE CON QUESO



Chile Con Queso image

A homemade queso that's rich, creamy, a little spicy and dangerously good!

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Appetizers

Time 30m

Yield About 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small yellow onion, diced (about ¾ cup)
1 large jalapeño pepper, finely diced (see note)
4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed through a garlic press
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 cups half & half
4 ounces (about 1 cup) grated sharp Cheddar cheese
4 ounces (about 1 cup) grated Pepper Jack cheese
¼ teaspoon cumin
Heaping ¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons finely diced tomatoes (use only the flesh, no seeds or juice)
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional for more heat
Fresh chopped cilantro, optional for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and jalapeños and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds more. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute.
  • Add the half & half to the pot and whisk until the flour dissolves. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, a few minutes. Turn the heat down to low and gradually add the grated cheese, whisking and letting it melt as you go, until all of the cheese is incorporated. Add the cumin, salt and tomatoes. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary; for more heat, add the optional red pepper flakes. (If the dip seems too thick, you can thin it out with a bit more half & half or some milk.) Transfer to bowl and serve hot with tortilla chips. If the dip cools while you're serving it, you can reheat it in the microwave; just stop and stir at short intervals so it reheats evenly.
  • Note: The queso can be made ahead of time and reheated on the stovetop. If it's too thick, add a bit of half and half or milk to thin it out.
  • Note: If you touch the seeds of the jalapeño pepper, just be sure to wash your hands well and avoid touching your eyes.

CHILI CON QUESO

Years ago, my husband invented this gooey cheese dip. I may be biased, but I have to say it's excellent. If you like heat, rev it up with finely chopped jalapenos. -Patricia Leinheiser, Albuquerque, New Mexico

AUTHENTIC CHILE CON QUESO



Authentic Chile con Queso image

This is a true chile con queso that can be eaten with tostadas or in a warm corn tortilla. This is not like the Americanized version of chili con queso that we have become used to that is a cheese dip, which I also love. This is the way my grandma used to make it. The great thing about this recipe is you can play with it and adjust it to your personal taste. If you like it cheesier add more cheese. You can't mess this up unless you burn it.

CHILE CON QUESO



Chile Con Queso image

Warmed up it makes a great dip for chips. Can be also be spread on crackers when taken straight from the refrigerator. The kind of American cheese you use will have a great effect on the outcome of this dip. I use Kraft Deli Deluxe American cheese when making this. Don't use the kind of cheese that consists of the individually wrapped slices. It tastes too much like plastic.

TEXAS BEST CHEESE DIP (CHILE CON QUESO)



Texas Best Cheese Dip (Chile Con Queso) image

This is a delicious cheese dip that my daughter makes. The cream cheese gives it a wonderful consistency. All the fresh ingredients make this a dip that you will be asked for over and over again! Please note I have put "to taste" on alot of the ingredients as it depends on how big your bunch of veggies are. If you actually get lucky enough to have any left it keeps in the fridge a good while and reheats great. I usually serve/take this dip in a crockpot so it stays warm.
