Nacho Cheese Sauce Recipe

• portions: 8 servings
• temps actif: 5 minutes
• temps total: 10 minutes

Ingrédients

2 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons flour

1 cup milk (use whole milk for richer flavor)

8 ounces melty cheese

2-3 tablespoons pickled jalapeno juice

Pinch of salt (optional, if desired)

Instructions

Melt Butter

Heat a sauce pan or small pot to medium heat. Add the butter and melt it.

Make a Roux

Stir in the flour and stir continuously for 2-3 minutes to form a roux.

Milk

Stir in the milk and allow to simmer. It will bubble just a bit around the edges.

Cheese

Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the cheese a bit at a time. Continue stirring until it all melts through.

Pickled Jalapeno Juice

Stir in the pickled jalapeno juice (and some of the pickled jalapenos, too, if you want!). Keep stirring until the nacho cheese sauce is nice and smooth.

Serve

Taste and adjust for salt, then serve with tortilla chips!
