Masters Pimento Cheese Recipe
Masters Pimento Cheese Sandwich Recipe
Ingredients
- Sharp Cheddar Cheese (Shredded) 2 cups
- Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese (Shredded) 1 cup
- Cream Cheese 8 oz
- Cottage Cheese (Optional) ¾ cup
- Pimentos 4 tablespoon
- Mayonnaise 4 tablespoon
- Chives (Sliced thin into coins) 10
- Chipotles in Adobo Sauce (Chopped) 2 teaspoon
- Black Pepper 1 ½ teaspoon
- Sea Salt 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- Start by hand grating the sharp cheddar & the extra sharp cheddar cheese. The grating of the cheese is so important for the texture. Use a box grater and grate on the side with the large grooves.
- In another bowl, mix the cottage cheese, room temperature cream cheese, chives, chopped chipotles, black pepper, mayonnaise & sea salt together.
- Then mix the grated cheese with the other ingredients. Combine, being careful to preserve the grate cheese texture.
- Once combined nicely, add in the pimentos last. The reason to wait until the last step to add the pimentos is to protect their shape and texture.
- Cover bowl with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerator 12 to 36 hours for flavor development.
