As is, it is kid-friendly, quick, and delicious! It can be used as a dip for tortilla chips or a sauce for many Mexican dishes.

WHITE CHEESE DIP (QUESO BLANCA)



White Cheese Dip (Queso Blanca) image

My husband and I had this incredible cheese dip at a local mexican restaurant. We asked what ingredients were in the dip and they would only tell us a few. So, we made this up...it's almost exactly the same! SO GOOD!! Don't skip the jalapeno juice, it doesn't add any heat in this ratio, just taste--it tastes so much better with it than without it.
