Let’s talk cheese choices. You have many options when it comes to nacho cheese sauce, and they are all delicious in their own unique ways. Velveeta is a processed American cheese, and is a standard option when it comes to nacho cheese sauce. It will be thicker, smoother, and creamier than a shredded cheese. You can also use your standard cheddar cheese or other favorite melting cheese, which will make a thinner, slightly grainer sauce.
Can I use store bought pre-shredded cheese?
Freshly grated cheese is best. The additives in pre-shredded cheese that keep it from clumping impacts its ability to melt.
