This Cheddar Cheese Sauce recipe
is very easy to make and can be made with your favorite type
of cheddar cheese, whether it be sharp, extra sharp, white
cheddar or mild. This tasty cheese sauce can be used with a large
variety of foods. For example,
Golden Onion Burgers uses
this |
|
|
|
cheese sauce as a topping over
grilled ground beef patties to add
flavor and moistness. Other ways you can use this sauce
include serving it over vegetables such as broccoli,
cauliflower, brussel sprouts and many others. It is also
delicious drizzled over baked potatoes along with some bacon
bits and diced chives or green onions.
If you prefer a more mild cheese
sauce with some Parmesan cheese mixed in, you might be
interested in LoveThatFood's
Mild Cheese Sauce
recipe. On the other hand, if you enjoy a
little "kick" in your sauce, you can add 1/8 teaspoon of
cayenne pepper to this cheese sauce recipe. This will not
necessarily |
|
overpower it with spice, but
will give it more distinct flavor. When this sauce sits for a while, it
might thicken a little. To thin, simply add a little milk at
a time while you reheat, and stir until you reach desired
consistency. Leftover cheese sauce can be stored in the
refrigerator and reheated when ready to use (again, using a
little milk to thin if needed). |
