Homemade Piemento Cheese - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 (4 ounce) jar diced pimentos, undrained
1/4 cup sweet pickle relish (optional)
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch cayenne (optional) or 1 pinch hot sauce (optional)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon celery seed
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup mayonnaise
Preparation
-
If using Velveeta, put the cheese through a food chopper or use food processor to grind up the cheese. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well. Enjoy!
Note: I stuffed some celery with it. If you don't have sharp cheddar on hand, use a 1/4 tsp (or a dot more) of cayenne pepper. When serving on white bread, consider grilling it like a grilled cheese sandwich.
