Pimento Cheese Dip/Spread

Pimento Cheese Dip / Spread

My adaptation of the Master’s Golf Tournament’s Traditional Pimento Cheese Dip

• 3 cups of (hand) grated sharp Tillamook Cheese

• ¾ cup Light Best Foods mayonnaise (add more if needed, but do it after you add the jar of pimentos, as it also has liquid!)

• 3 T cream cheese or mascarpone cheese

***mush together with a fork until desired consistency, can use beaters too… then add the remaining following ingredients***

• 4 oz. jar Dromedary chopped pimentos + the juice

• ½ - ¾ cup finely chopped white or yellow onion

• ½ - ¾ cup finely chopped red bell pepper

• Tapatio to taste (I use about ¾ cup because I like it spicy!)

• Cayenne Pepper to taste (I use quite a few dashes {again}, because I like it spicy!)

• Dash of Worcestershire Sauce

• salt to taste

• optional:  add some finely diced jalapeños if you are feeling extra spicy!

• Spread on White or Wheat Bread (remove crusts) for a traditional Augusta, Georgia Master’s Golf Tournament Sandwich  OR serve with celery, carrots, other veggies, toast points, Fritos, tortilla chips, or a bland type of cracker, so as not to overwhelm the flavor of the dip! Enjoy!
