CHILE CON QUESO
4 fresh anaheim chiles 2 Tbsp vegetable oil 1 yellow onion, peeled and chopped 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1 lb grated white cheddar cheese 1 Tbsp sour cream
Char the chiles over a flame or in the broiler. Place them in a paper bag to steam off the skin. Rub off the skin, stem, seed and coarsely chop. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onion and garlic and cook slowly until both are transluscent. Add the chiles and cook for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, add the cheese, stirring constantly until cheese melts. Be careful to keep the heat low or the cheese will "seize" and become stringy.
Stir in the sour cream, serve with warm tortilla chips.
MELTED CHEESE DIP WITH TORTILLA CHIPS
For this dip, based on the Mexican queso fundido, you will need to use a flameproof dish set over candles or Sterno to keep the cheese melted.
2 pounds Monterey Jack cheese, grated 1/4 cup all purpose flour 1 1/3 cups beer 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro 4 tsp. minced jalapeņo chilies Blue corn tortilla chips
Place cheese in large bowl. Add flour, toss to coat. Bring beer to boil in heavy large saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Add 1 handful of cheese to beer; stir constantly until cheese melts. Repeat with remaining cheese; stir until thick & creamy (do not boil). Stir in cilantro & chilies. Season with salt & pepper. Pour in flameproof baking dish. If desired, preheat broiler. Broil cheese dip until top is golden, about 2 minutes. Set dish over candles or Sterno on serving table. Serve with tortilla chips.12 Servings
MEXICAN RESTAURANT WHITE CHEESE DIP
1 pound white American cheese ( I've found it sold in blocks in the deli dept. at WalMart, they will slice/sell you ever how much you want).
milk (amt. depends on how thin you want it)
jalepeno peppers to taste, very finely chopped
Cube cheese, put in saucepan over med-low heat and add just enough milk to melt cheese to desired consistancy, stirring constantly so cheese does not burn. Blend in jalepeno peppers to taste. Refrigerate leftovers and you can reheat it on the stove by adding a little milk and stirring constantly over med-low heat.

The white cheese dip you are talking about is made from Chichuaua cheese that can be found in Mexican food specialty stores. It is melted and has 1 can of green chilies mixed with it. If you like it hotter, you can add some jalepenos too. |
