This is similar to Price's Pimiento Cheese or other similar cheese spreads found all over the southern U.S., but this has a lot more personality and flavor than most. Good on crackers, for stuffed celery, or for making tortilla roll ups, thinned with a little extra mayonnaise. Prep time does not include setting time Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) jar pimientos, drained |
1 medium onion, grated, not chopped (chopped is too coarse) |
1/2 teaspoon garlic granules |
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon citric acid (sour salt) |
1/2 lemon, juice of |
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
1 -2 teaspoon white wine vinegar |
1/2 cup mayonnaise (about) |
1 1/2 lbs sharp cheddar cheese, shredded |
Directions:
1. Chop the pimientos. 2. Place in a large bowl, add onion, seasonings, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, and mayonnaise. 3. Add cheese a little bit at a time, tossing with each addition. 4. Add extra mayonnaise if you want a creamier consistency. 5. Cover, and refrigerate overnight. 6. Adjust seasonings as necessary. |
