    I was just thinking that a nacho cheese sauce might be good for a topping on my popcorn. Had no clue how to make it. Google it, this video popped up. Took about 5 minutes. Only had mozzarella cheese and tapioca flour. I can confirm these are fine substitute ingredients. Because it worked great. 👍👍recipe 😋

    I made my own cheddar from scratch using milk, culture and rennet. It is currently aging and getting nice and sharp. And when it's done, this is what I want to do with it.
    Thank you so much for giving us a natural cheese recipe that can be done with plain old block cheese. I owe you big!

    Using a cornstarch slurry instead of flour in your rue for the natural cheese version makes it less grainy and thicker. The other advantage to that type is that it doesn't get a solid skin on it 30 seconds after pouring it in the bowl like the Velveeta version does. However, the Velveeta does taste really good.

    If done properly the cheddar sauce isn't grainy, mine never is. After adding flour to melted butter keep stirring while heating through for about 2 mins, then add half your milk, I whisk out the lumps, then add the other half of milk. Then cook on a low fire, stirring all the time, from 5 to 10 minutes, until the flour is cooked and you will have a smooth grain free sauce. Now the seasoning and cheese can be added. The key is to cook your sauce well on a low fire.

    ..... For chili sauce .....
    Use liquid sauce like Sriracha Hot Sauce or similar are better than powder chili

    Thickness can control by add more cheese or more milk

      That is the exact opposite of standard cooking techniques but go ahead and do what you want. Flour is terrible at dissolving in liquid, but it sounds like you don’t care to learn how to cook.

    Melting the cheddar on lower heat prevents the graininess. As a matter of fact, the whole process should be done a lot cooler. After adding the milk to the roux, you want to keep it at barely a simmer. It should not actually get to simmer. Once the milk starts to thicken, add the cheese. To make it creamy, the sauce will take 30 minutes. medium to high heat takes a lot less time, but you end up with that texture.
