BEST MEXICAN CHEESE FOR QUESO DIP RECIPES

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Sauté the green onions (white parts only) for 4 minutes, until soft. Then add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
• Add the tomatoes in with juices with the chiles, cumin, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Cook while stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes until soft and fragrant.
• Mix cornstarch into the pot, then pour in the evaporated milk, stirring well to combine.
• Bring to a boil, then add the cheese, mixing well. Cook, while stirring, until cheese just melts through the milk and transforms into a smooth sauce. Take off heat immediately.
• Stir in cilantro, green onions (reserved green parts) and season with salt to taste if needed. Mix well. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until soft, 5 minutes. Add garlic and jalapeño and cook until fragrant, 1 minute more.  Add cheese, a handful at a time, stirring well between each batch. Slowly stir in milk and continue stirring until everything is melted together. Adjust heat as needed as you don't want the pan to be too hot or your sauce will separate. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in tomatoes, green chilis, and cilantro.  Serve immediately with chips.
