3/4 pound cheddar cheese diced
1 teaspoon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika

use a double boiler, or place a bowl in a pan of boiling water, add all ingredients and simmer slowly. stir until smooth and melted.


MUSTARD! That's the key! I tried to experiment a bit and I used heavy cream, butter (too much, blahh) and cheese. I tried it and it was missing something so I added just a few drops of soy sauce. ACK! Wrong move. I added a few slices of raw potato to absorb the salty flavor and it worked. (I took them out after a few minutes)

I tried adding Italian spices, onion powder, and garlic powder. It was okay, but I want to try it again.

Next time I think I'll use the same cream, less butter, medium cheddar, and mustard. I really do think Mustard is the key for this one.
