Simply Nacho Cheese:

 

8 Slices American Cheese

1/3 Cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

1 Cup Heavy Cream

1 Tsp. Kosher Salt

1/3 Cup Pickled, Finely Chopped Jalapeno Slices

1/4 Cup Pickled Jalapeno Juice

1 Tsp. Flour

 

In a double boiler over medium-high heat, add heavy cream, salt, Jalapeno Juice and 4 slices of American Cheese.

 

Mix slowly until the cheese is mostly melted.

 

Add the Shredded Cheddar Cheese, Chopped Jalapenos and the rest of the American Cheese Slices.

Continue to stir until completely melted.

 

At this point, the sauce is great over other foods such as enchiladas.

 

To thicken the sauce for a Nacho Cheese Dip, add 1 Tsp. Flour and whisk into the sauce.
