JanwaRebelle: Oh, I think adding other kinds of cheeses like pepper jack would give the sauce a flavor suitable for nachos other than just plain cheddar cheese. I would even add a few glugs of Cholula right in it 😋
PorterJustice: The gif start with 100g of butter, then proceeds to use Imperial measurements for the rest of the gif.
I am confused as to how much butter to use
TheLadyEve: Monterey Jack and minced fresh chilies could be excellent additions to this, too.
Illusive_Van: This a bechamel sauce with cheese, right?
theskillr: You broke your grill, didn’t you
bashpop: That’s not nacho cheese sauce. That’s a basic bechamel with cheddar. This is exactly what you’d use to make macaroni and cheese.
eutamias21: Will that stay loose or will it congeal without heat?
byrdpye: Leave out the cayenne and mix with cooked noodles for Mac and cheese.
DanDrungle: Velveta + Rotel + crock pot = all you need
houstonianisms: I’m kinda offended. Please visit south Texas.
real_legit_unicorn: This is basically homemade macaroni and cheese without the macaroni.

I’m so grateful for all the support everyone here in r/GifRecipes has given me.
A few people mentioned I should start my own subreddit which will give people an easy place to find my recipe and also post photos of their creation.

Don’t worry this won’t mean I’ll stop posting my GIF recipes here 😉
reaper2309: This is literally just a basic white sauce with cheese. Apparently adding cayenne pepper makes things Mexican all of a sudden?
CatHairInYourEye: I like Matty’s queso recipe
https://youtu.be/oEj3mlOJbyQ
con500: Nice recipe. I like to have a jar of sliced jalapeños in the fridge at all times. While making my cheese sauce I like to take one or two of the jalapeño slices, chop them finely and add straight to the sauce. I also add a splash of the jalapeno brine from the jar to loosen the sauce slightly & give a lil kick.
chuck103: Came here to see this cooked on the grill. Still looks delicious.
Erainor: If it’s Nacho cheese sauce, who’s sauce is it
*lets himself out*
themattcrumb: I wanted it to go 1/2 cup of cheese, 1/2 cup of cheese, 1/2 cup of cheese about 30 more times.
crapestry: now I can finally make a homemade crunchwrap supreme
acter34: Wait, if it’s not mine whose is it?
invitrobrew: Not to be a dick, but many better options for making cheese sauce:
1. Sodium citrate. Of course not everyone has it (it’s available online). But it’s advantages are basically letting *any* cheese become smooth and silky with using a small amount of liquid (milk, beer, wine, etc.)
2. If you don’t have any sodium citrate, use some plain ‘ole American cheese that already has sodium citrate in it. You’re a purist and that stuff is plastic, you say? Tough. All that delicious queso you’re getting at many Mexican restaurants is just white American cheese anyway. It has a purpose and this is one of them.
3. Dusting cheese with cornstarch and using evaporate milk ala Kenji in one of the first articles I ever read on SeriousEats .
The advantages of not using a roux are that it won’t break, it stays consistent while on heat/keeping warm, and if you have leftovers, they reheat to the exact same consistency of the original product. Rouxs get grainy and they can split on too much heat, and don’t reheat worth a shit. Plus, the 3 above mentioned techniques are all celiac-friendly if you need to roll that way.
PitchforkAssistant: I wish I could eat that all day!
tyn0mite: ELI5 – why was the first measurement grams then the rest in cups, tbsp, etc?? Also, any ideas for the flower substitute?
Arbitrary_Cleverness: Personal preference for pepper jack in nacho cheese but cheddar would be pretty good too. I’m also a big fan of adding sodium citrate as an emulsifier for cheese sauces
JKM0715: Thanks jrej
RIPDickcream: Use freshly shredded cheese from the block. Pre-shredded cheese has stabilizers in it and will make this recipe way too thick.
Etobocoke: Before you add the cheese and cayenne pepper, you have a basic white sauce. If you add the cheese you can put it on broccoli or thin the sauce out and make broccoli soup. You can also add cocktail ship to the white sauce for Alfredo pasta dishes. My favourite is shrimp and green peppers on toast,
eflefko: Queso
ScholarOfTwilight: Protip: put a small container of Chipotle red sauce if you’d like any spice whatsoever.
Zebrasaurus-Rex: I just made a nacho dip today. I’d recommend using Tex Mex seasoning and diced jalapenos.
golddust89: I think your supposed the cook the flour and butter a bit longer than that.
xMoody: And that’s how you make shit tier Chipotle queso.
AdonVodka: I think if Ted Cruz watched this, he would have a spontaneous emission. Keisoh.
I feel like this recipe is the blank slate/default of keisohz and if you want to spice it up, you can add smoked gouda, provolone, whatever floats your boat.
brooklynscholar: Nacho cheese sauce, it’s my cheese sauce
selbeh: Lol did y’all really just call Queso “Nacho Cheese Sauce”
Edit:In most other parts of the world it’s just called Queso
civ6throwaway: Roux + Cheese = Cheese Sauce
omg guys, I am like a gourmetier
DYK? This is how you make fondue cheese and also mac and cheese and cheese for cheese casserole and also how you make alfredo sauce and almost every single creamy cheesy sauce that exists.
JuniorBarnes: Add a squirt of mustard for classic trash cheese colour.
cucumberkitty: ..isn’t this just queso?
huu11: This isn’t how to make nacho cheese, don’t use a roux, instead use sodium citrate in any liquid to make the best cheese sauce ever
Gagooon: I use the same recipe without the pepper, sometimes with Parmesan cheese added, for a Mac and cheese sauce! It’s delicious!
Theyreillusions: It still astounds me that all these armchair chefs take these recipes and just destroy them instead of just suggesting ways to improve.
Why is everyone such a dick about things.
Fentano: Dice some jalapenos into that.
NOCIANONSA: Best queso. Take 1 lb American white cheese, half a brick of cream cheese (4 Oz?) and 1/4 of the small Velveeta brick, carefully melt it in the microwave or stove top them thin it out as it’s melted with heavy cream. Mix in chorizo, brisket, pico de gallo, or whatever you want. Serve hot and melted. You’re welcome.
ConnorTJ72: Then whose is it?
Jaynestark: How to melt cheese in a pan
McFondlebutt: Hot roux, cold milk, no lumps. Simple math.
ricksaus: Redditors and mexican food is a bad combination my god. No cotija on top? No oaxaca? No jack? Comments recommending pepperjack?
This makes me sad.
Tabnam: ITT: IT’S MACARONI GUYS!
enameless: Ok dumb American here, why is the butter measured in grams and the flour in tablespoons?

strallus: Better to let the butter start to brown before adding the flower and then slowly whisk in the flour a bit at a time.
Moufboy: Add bacon and green chillies.
hells_fortune: i always get confused as to why people add flour to the cheese
zachpsx1: Make sure to rinse that pan out right away after using it! You’ve inspired me to eat nachos for the superbowl so thanks!
Decyde: Just throwing this out there that while this looks good, you can just get a large can, 48 oz, of nacho cheese for $8 at most large supermarkets.
I just put half the can into a crock pot, add in some sausage and jalapenos and it comes out great in about 5 hours cooked on slow.
It requires 2 bags of chips and is enough cheese to feed 10 people as an appetizers for the low cost of about $25.
mr_googly_eyed: Can the ~~floor~~ flour be substituted for corn starch?
BenderDeLorean: Thanks, now I have to decide: I need to unsubscribe r/1500isplenty or this sub. They don’t go very well together.
Btw: this recipe looks great, who needs diets.
Derkis: Quantities in the gif? Nice!
Cp3thegod: Needs jalapeno
sunny_lts: Tried it ONCE. Nuff said
TheShySlytherin: Yumm, Diabetes!
butpplug: That’s just… Bechamel with cheddar. What a waste of time.
semaj009: This is the first time I’ve seen cheddar in a gif recipe and actually recognise it as cheddar. Thank you for avoiding that orange stuff!!!!
