Time 25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings (about 3 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 small red onion, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeno, optional
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
One 12-ounce domestic lager beer, such as Budweiser
1/4 cup whole milk
4 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Sprinkle of chipotle powder, optional
Tortilla chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Put the cilantro, onions and pickled jalapeno if using on a cutting board, and chop them into a rough mixture.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, and stir until it is absorbed. Pour in the beer and milk; whisk constantly until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir in the Monterey Jack until completely melted and smooth.
  • Transfer the queso dip to a warmed serving dish, a fondue pot or a small slow cooker set to warm or low. Sprinkle the cilantro mixture on top, and sprinkle with a little chipotle powder if using. Serve with tortilla chips.

CHEF JOHN'S QUESO DIP



Chef John's Queso Dip image

I used to make something very similar to this queso dip at the Mexican restaurant I worked at in college, where we called it 'chili con queso.' At first I thought it could be thicker, but later I realized the saucy texture was the key to its addictive irresistibility. Instead of too much cheese piled up on your chip, we just get a beautiful, silky coating, and as soon as you finish one, you can't wait to dip another, and another, and another, until there are no chips left.
