Vegan Cashew Queso in 5 Minutes | Minimalist Baking Recipes
Queso also known as chile con queso is a melting cheese dip that is usually served with tortilla chips. It is said to have originated in Texas in the early 1900s (source).
While you can find chile con queso in some Mexican restaurants in the U.S. it’s very different from the authentic Mexican queso (called queso fundido) that likely inspired it. While queso fundido is typically made with soft white cheeses chile con queso is typically made with more processed American cheeses. You can learn more about the history and differences here.
Our plant-based version is untraditional but inspired by the creaminess and spiciness of chile con queso!
