Cooking UFies: How do I make this thinner? by Phoon 2007-07-25 03:17:17
I've made this recipe four times now, varying proportions (and even ingredients), and all four times it's ended up with a texture closer to that of refried beans than nacho cheese.

What should I do to make the texture thinner? I've tried the obvious steps of adding more milk, adding water, and cutting back on the corn starch, but no dice. If I cut back on the cheddar and jack cheese, the cream cheese becomes more noticeable, which isn't all that good.

Ideally, I'd like to end up with something I can pour, rather than having to scrape from the pot...

    I didn't think cheese or corn starch had gluten. (n/t) by Phoon2007-07-25 19:19:23
  Too much heat. You need to blend it slowly. (n/t) by RetiQlum22007-07-25 16:54:12
