Pimento Cheese
 
Ingredients
  • 2 cups grated sharp yellow cheddar cheese (about 8 ounces)
  • 2 cups grated extra-sharp white cheddar (about 8 ounces)
  • 1 cup finely chopped and well-drained pimientos (two 4-ounce jars)
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon celery salt
  • Serve with: toasted baguette slices, crackers, carrot sticks, celery sticks
Instructions
  1. Mix the first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Taste, then season with salt and pepper, if needed. Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill until ready to use. Transfer to serving bowl and serve with desired items such as baguette slices, crackers, or vegetable dippers. Serves 12 as an appetizer.
  2. Note: I like to place the ingredients in a food processor and pulse carefully just until blended; you do not want a smooth mixture! I personally like the cheese a little more finely grated than I can do it myself. I only pulse it a couple times and it's done.
