Cheese: Jalapeno Cheddar
June 20, 2008 – 11:46 amJalapeno cheddar is the perfect accent to a spicy dish. The mellow taste of cheddar combined with the fiery taste of jalapenos makes an extraordinary combination that really hits the spot. This cheese is perfect with nachos, baked potatoes, crackers, most mexican dishes, and different types of meat.
This type of cheese is typically used as a party appetizer. Its perfect for barbeques and can also be made into a dip or a fondue. I would recommend a mild jalapeno cheddar as the taste of jalapenos is very strong.
Jalapeno Cheddar Muffins
A Jalapeno Cheddar Muffin is not like your typical muffin. For the most part muffins are sweet and sold as dessert or breakfast pastries. Jalapeno cheddar muffins are perfect as starters before a lunch or a dinner.
You can make them with wheat flour, white flour, or cornmeal. Spread some melting butter on top and you have a wonderful snack. Cheese is a great thing to add to any type of bread because it significantly enhances the flavor.
