Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups 472 ml whole milk
  • ¾ tsp onion powder
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp poblano pepper (finely chopped)
  • 2 tbsp serrano pepper (finely chopped)
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 cup 8 oz sour cream
  • 2 cups 200 g Monterey Jack, shredded
  • 1 cup 100 g white sharp cheddar, shredded
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a medium pot add milk, onion powder, garlic powder, poblano pepper, serrano pepper, and cornstarch dissolved in the 2 tbsp of water. Stir well and warm it up over medium-low heat. Do not let it come to a full boil.
  • Add the sour cream right before it comes to a boil and stir to dissolve it.
  • Add both cheeses in batches into the pot. This will give the cheese time to melt giving the queso dip a velvety smooth texture.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste and keep stirring until all the cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
