Cheddar Cheese Base

For Serving

Method

Preparation of Cheddar Cheese Base

  1. 1

    Melt Butter

    In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until it is completely melted and bubbly.

  2. 2

    Add Flour

    Once the butter is melted, add the all-purpose flour to the saucepan and whisk continuously for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture turns a light golden color, forming a roux.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Milk

    Slowly add the milk to the roux, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the mixture thickens.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Seasonings

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the sharp cheddar cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until the cheese is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

  5. 5

    Cool the Mixture

    Pour the cheese mixture into a greased baking dish and spread evenly. Allow it to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Refrigerate

    Once cooled, cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the cheese is firm.

Serving the Cheddar Slice

  1. 7

    Slice the Cheese

    After the cheese mixture has set, remove it from the refrigerator and slice it into squares or rectangles.

  2. 8

    Garnish with Chives

    Sprinkle the fresh chives on top of the cheese slices for added flavor and presentation.

  3. 9

    Serve with Crackers

    Arrange the cheddar slices on a serving platter alongside a box of crackers for dipping.
