When at an eating joint, we eat a lot of fast foods and love that gooey melting sauce that our snacks come coupled with. While enjoying those delicacies, some of us don’t consider what ingredients make those snacks absolute hit to our palate. One of such ingredients is the processed cheese – yes, you heard that right. Processed cheese is a different breed than cheese.
There are lot many varieties of processed cheese, but all of these are made by heating and blending varying proportions of cheese, milk, salts, preservatives, food colouring with some emulsifying agents. With their strong focus on altering flavours, they are absolute in most fast food. So here is our pick for processed cheese and dishes that they go well with:
Cheese sauce
Cheese sauce or cheddar sauce is a simple sauce made up with butter, flour, milk and few seasonings. It was a concoction perfected by Blackie Donnely, the original owner of Mexico Chiquito Restaurants. Ever since its evolution, it has spread to the many Tex-Mex and other traditional restaurants as it goes well with non-Tex-Mex dishes.
Cheese sauce can be used in a variety of recipes like being poured over meats, pasta, vegetables and even as the liquid cheese sauce for nacho. This versatile and indispensable item goes very well for fries, nachos, broccoli, burgers, chilli, baked potatoes and many more. Two of my favourites Cheese sauce dishes are:
Veg Cheese Puff
Enjoy veg cheese puff with delicious puff pastry shell filled with creamy cheese topped with fresh cut vegetable. This buttery puff pastry and crunchy vegetables are perfect pairings with sharp, mouth-watering creamy cheese.
Roasted Poblano Cheese Sauce
Enjoy the flaming spice with flavourful creamy cheese with roasted poblanos, combine to make a perfect dip, sauce, topping or others.
