Queso in Queso & Cheese Dips(125)

Which queso is spicier: mild or medium?

Medium queso is spicier than mild queso. However, both medium and mild quesos are toned down a bit from a traditional hot and spicy queso. If you're looking for something spicy, look for a queso that doesn't have either label.

What can I add to plain queso to dress it up?

One quick, easy, and popular recipe involves cooking a roll of sausage, crumbling it up, and adding it to your queso. Next, mix in a can of diced tomatoes and green chilies, and you have a delicious dip to snack on or serve at your next party. If you want a spicier queso, chop up some of your favorite peppers and add them to the mix. You can also add salsa or pico de gallo for a little texture and flavor. Beans, taco beef, and buffalo sauce are great additions as well.

What is in salsa con queso?

Salsa con queso is basically just white queso cheese dip with salsa mixed in. Not only does it add flavor, but it gives it a little kick for people who like spicier dishes. It also tends to be a little thinner than traditional queso so you can use it as a dip or drizzle it on foods like tacos and fajitas.
