• Cornstarch

Cheese Dip in the Instant Pot

Yes, you can make cheese dip in a pressure cooker! To avoid curdling of the dairy products in this White Queso Cheese Dip, the cheese and milk is added in the end.

It's easy to make Instant Pot White Queso Sausage dip and you don't need a ton of ingredients to create a dip that is packed full of flavor.

There are no extra pots needed to make this cheese dip, just the inner liner! The first step in making this dip is to brown the sausage and brown it down into bits.

It's important to deglaze the pot after browning or sautéing anything in the inner liner to avoid a burn notice.

Scrape off any bits that may be stuck on the bottom of the pot before adding in the diced jalapenos, the taco seasoning, and the garlic powder.

TIP: Use a food processor to blend the jalapenos into small bits if you want a smoother white queso dip.

It only takes 4 minutes of pressure cooking time and a quick release before it's time to add the White American Cheese and milk slurry.

When quick releasing, do a controlled release to avoid spurts of liquid. Refer to your pressure cooker's operation manual for directions on how to safely do this.

Turn the Instant Pot back to saute and add the White American Cheese to the pot and stir so that the cheese will melt.

Combine the milk with the cornstarch and mix so that the cornstarch dissolves. This prevents any lumps of cornstarch from forming in the White Queso Dip.

Pour the milk mixture into the cheese dip and sauté long enough to allow the cheese sauce to thicken.
