Like a glorified cheeze whiz that we ate as kids, but spicier. We used to eat sandwiches with that. I can't wait to make this! Thanks for sharing it! Oh, okay- I get it.

I guess it's southern...I never thought about it. I only tried it for the first time a year or so ago. From what I've found, people are pretty picky about how they like it. In my book, it better be sharp! A little spice is good, and not too much mayo. But you don't cook it at all usually; it's a sandwich spread, like tuna or chicken salad. You get pimientos in a jar, usually near the olives but our store carries them by the pickled artichokes and nowhere near the pickles! The way my friend made it wasn't too spicey...you knew it was there but it didn't overwhelm. Just a perfect nuance. In order for food like this to shine you gotta use good stuff and keep it simple. Use a good, real, sharp cheddar. A flavorful mayo (NOT Miracle Whip!!). I used to read about people going fishing, taking a stack of pimento cheese sandwiches with them for the day. They make excellent picnic sandwiches! I like them on a slightly sweet bread. And it's great as a dip too, or a stuffing for veggies, like I said in my post. I don't think it'd be that great on fajitas though....could be, but I think the fajita flavor would overwhelm the pimento cheese. It needs a more bland backdrop so it can be the star :-) Whole ‘nother flavah girlfriend! I guess it’s southern…I never thought about it. I only tried it for the first time a year or so ago.

Pimentos are the red things in green olives right?:0)Is this spicy-hot even without the onion and poblano? How would it be on fajitas or is it a completely different flavor?

Can't wait to try it! Pimento cheese was a fixture in my childhood but was always store-bought not homemade. Thanks! Yippee! Can’t wait to try it!
