Hi...I just found this site yesterday and I'm hooked! I read your nacho recipe and I was thinking of applying it to queso fundido to make it more dippable (is that word??? lol). Well, look forward to reading more...thanks!

If you still have problems with the cheese melting, puree the crema, the american cheese and the jalapeño vinagre in a blender until smooth. Then pour that mixture into the saucepan with the melted butter. Stir in the Manchego cheese and just heat until it melts. It's what I used to have to do before finding Lala and Nestle brand cheese. :)

Hi Alisha! I use Nestle and/or Lala brands of American cheese. I don't know if these brands are available in the U.S. Since you are in the States, you have a wider selection of cheese to choose from. If the American cheese isn't melting, you could try a mild cheddar. :)

I have a question about the american cheese you use. I have tried most brands here and they won't melt. Which do you use or how can I get them to melt better. I made this the other day and is was perfect except the little pieces of american cheese that I tried to melt. Thank you for the recipe!

Greetings Leslie!

Thank you very much for all your wonderful information. One unrelated to Nacho's question. Can I assemble tamales one day and cook them the next? I love all the recipes you have for them and the comments/suggestions from others. I am making them for February 2 and am new to the tradition.

Oh Leslie I only recently found really good crema oaxaquena and I love it! I love adding a bit of the vinagre in my queso also, yum!! I made Drick's salsa de frijoles this weekend and loved it for our football party!!

I love the idea of this sauce, which I haven't seen anywhere else. Very original. Will definitely try it. Thanks.

Hi Anonymous! You'll probably be able to find Mexican crema in the cheese/dairy aisle of your local grocery store or a Latino/Hispanic supermarket. Cacique was the brand I used when I lived in the States. Hope you are able to find some. :)

Hi Leslie,

All I can say is...I'm totally making this. It sounds AMAZING! I usually do chili or carnitas or wings for Super Bowl. Although this year I was thinking of just doing a bunch of "dip/spread" types foods with things for dipping and spreading. This WILL be included.
