BULK QUESO DIP RECIPES

Steps:

• Stovetop method: Bring 1-inch of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium-low and place a bowl inside the pot to create a double boiler. (The bowl should be big enough to rest above the rim of the pot without the bottom touching the water.) Add both cheeses, the half-and-half, garlic, jalapeño and ground black pepper and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the dip is creamy. Stir in the green chilies.  Slow-cooker method: In the base of a slow-cooker, combine both cheeses, the half-and-half, garlic, jalapeño and ground black pepper and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high for 50 minutes, stirring once half-way through. Stir in the green chilies. Transfer to a serving bowl or reduce the temperature of the slow-cooker to warm and keep covered until ready to serve. Top with diced tomatoes, cilantro, and sliced jalapeño. Serve immediately.
  

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Thoroughly stir in the cornstarch. Stir in the sour cream. When the mixture becomes hot and bubbly, mix in Cheddar cheese and salsa. Continue stirring until cheese has melted and mixture begins to thicken, about 10 minutes. Serve hot.
