Are they few and far between? Yes, but so worth it! Cause once you have a creamy cheese dip with real food ingredients, the canned or jarred stuff just doesn't compare. I've been seeking out the good (real) stuff at restaurants ever since. That's the thing about real food recipes.they use seasonal, fresh, and/or less processed ingredients so the taste is never exactly the same. are made with industrial canned nacho cheese or the processed cheese product that I mentioned above, so it tastes the same every single time. Most queso dips served in restaurants across the U.S. I was blown away at the difference! I could tell instantly that it was made with real cheese because it had a different and more complex flavor. I loved this stuff back in the day! Real Cheese Versus Processed Cheese in Queso DipĮventually, (as an adult) I got the opportunity to try a queso dip made with real cheese at a Tex-Mex restaurant. We always served it with Fritos scoops or tortilla chips and let me tell you.this dip disappeared lightning FAST. This always consisted of two name-brand ingredients melted together in the microwave or slow cooker: a rectangle of bright orange processed "cheese" ( Velveeta) + a can of diced tomatoes with chiles ( Rotel).ĭid you eat the same cheese dip growing up or is this just a Midwest thing? I'd be curious to know. If I was lucky, the host (or mom if I was at a friend's house for a sleepover) would make hot cheese dip, fondly called queso for short. Let's be honest, one of the best parts of hosting or attending a gathering is the food, right? ( You obviously know where my priorities lie.ahem!) Some of my favorite party snacks growing up were meat & cheese platters, sour cream & onion dip + raw veggies, 7 layer bean dip, mozzarella sticks, potato skins, hot spinach & artichoke dip, and canned black olives.
