PIMENTO CHEESE & ITS BRETHREN - The Caviar Of The South.


2/25/16 - Well, it looks like a jar of Pimentos is not easily found, at least tonight it is not but on the morrow the chase restarts.

So, I made Hot Cherry Pepper Cheese instead replacing the Peppers for Pimento's. Anyhow it is good to experiment with a new Recipe first before inundating onto unsuspecting friends who may become otherwise after the fact.

(Sharp Cheddar, Mayo, Cherry Peppers, Black Pepper).


OK, first try, I may have blown it but lets see.
Going to have it on a RITZ because everything sits better on a RITZ.

This definitely works, my only mild complaint is about the not so mild.
The Hot Cherry Peppers are a bit Robust, with Pickles, Olives, or even a smaller amount of Jalapenoes this will work really well, the possibilities are endless.

Thank You Mike Ehremtraut.


No, this Spread may never actually be photogenic so I will spare the eye candy at least for now.


3/22/16 - Pimento Cheese - After some mild supermarket searching I found Pimento's both Slices and Diced, I chose the Diced to cut down on preparation time.

And it came to be that the CLASSIC Pimento Cheese was quite mild in flavor 


OK a little less Briney but this is how you learn. 

The Process of Elimination (in this case cut down on the Brine and the Mayo).


4/11/16 - Hot Cherry Pepper Pimento Cheese - 


5/16 - Bread & Butter Pickle Pepper (Hot Cherry Pepper) Cheese - This was a good idea on paper but did not truly work, mind you completely Edible and frankly how could it not be but I am leaning closer and closer to Hot Cherry Pepper Cheese (jalapeno's basically being a replica) in the top spot as the experiments continue to roll on.


6/16 - Wasabi Soy Sauce Pepper (Hot Cherry Pepper) Cheese - For real its just Hot Cherry Pepper Cheese with a handsome dash of Wasabi Soy Sauce (of my own making) thrown in and of course it works.
