Queso Dip
Recipe by Ed Kernan
So you’re already making tacos and invited a friend over to enjoy them with you. We love that for you. Now it’s time to step up your menu with some indulgent southwestern-style queso dip. If you’ve ever wanted to recreate that restaurant experience, this is the recipe for you. Unlike what it tastes like (straight up delicious melted cheese), there’s a couple more steps involved to get that perfect cheese dip consistency. Now you have the secret. It’s okay if you share it.

What You'll Need
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt
- One 7-ounce can of salsa casera
- ½ cup milk
- 4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- Tortilla chips
Directions
Step 1
Turn the Perfect Power Pot™ on to Level 1 (low heat) and add in butter. When butter is melted, whisk in the flour with a silicone whisk. Whisk slowly until the butter and flour have combined and look like wet sand.
Step 2
Whisk in taco seasoning and salt. Whisk in a can of salsa. Continue whisking until liquid begins to thicken, then whisk in milk.
Step 3
When liquid begins to thicken in the pot, stir in the cheese. Place the glass lid on the pot until it is completely melted, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
When cheese is completely melted, turn the pot off. Serve with chips. To keep the cheese warm, turn the heat on Level 1 (low heat) occasionally.
