AUTHENTIC MEXICAN WHITE CHEESE SAUCE



Authentic Mexican White Cheese Sauce image

The cheese in this recipe is actually supposed to be Queso Chihuahua cheese, but the site won't allow it. This is a recipe I was given by a cook at our local authentic Mexican restaurant after trying for years to figure it out on my own. Goes great on any mexican dish, especially rice or with tortilla chips and salsa.
