Ingredients
- 4 oz pimento pepper drained and rinsed (See Note 1
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded, sharp
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise See Note 2
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp white pepper
- 2 lices Bacon crumbled (optional, cooked
Serving
- 1 Cracker or toasted baguette slices
Instructions
- In a medium bowl mix all of the ingredients by hand or with hand mixer until combined. I highly recommend not in a food processor as it will over puree, you'll want some texture.
- Cover and refrigerate 1 hour before serving. Spread on crackers of choice (or toasted baguette slices) or with sliced vegetables for scooping. I add a few pieces of cooked bacon on top, optional.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- It's important to rinse and drain the pimentos to keep the color and flavor of the cheese spread.
- A traditional Southern mayonnaise to use would be Dukes Real Mayonnaise.
- Nutritional information is for pimento cheese only.
- Recipe adapted from The Loveless Cafe.
