on Feb 25, 2022 Yes! Yes! Yes! Let’s celebrate because we are in cheese heaven today. I’m going to be honest. I’m not a big fan of overly cheesy food. Like I would never order a cheese stuffed pizza crust. Nah. Not a fan. But for some reason, give me a bowl of this spicy nacho cheese sauce and I can scoff it down all by myself. And lick my fingers in the process. But my favourite way to serve this sauce? Pouring it all over loaded nachos. Warning: that stuff is addictive! If you start searching for cheese sauces on your online grocery store, you’ll get a dozen brands selling them. But guys, this tastes 200% better than store bought.

Making your own vs buying

Tastes cleaner, better than store bought. No sticky mouth or weird after taste hereYou know exactly what’s going into the sauce which is just eight ingredients. No chemicals, stabilizers etcYou can make it your own. Play around with the flavours – add some chiles or jalapenos or extra mustard or even leave the garlic out It only takes TEN minutes to make!

Have I convinced you yet? Here’s a quick picture of all the ingredients you need for the cheese sauce:

Only Rule: Use the right cheese

Making this nacho sauce is incredibly easy and there’s only one rule to follow. Use good quality cheese and use a cheese block instead of pre-shredded cheese. Pre-shredded cheese is usually tossed in cornflour or another kind of agent that keeps it from clumping, which actually makes it a bad choice for homemade cheese sauce. Pre-shredded cheese will make your sauce taste powdery and won’t give you the same silky smooth texture. And that’s really it. Just keep things in mind and you’ll have a great tasting, homemade cheese sauce every single time! Now let’s get scooping!
