Katie’s Pimento Cheese

“Pimento Cheese may not seem like a wine related recipe, but everyone loves this recipe and it is great to have on hand with crackers before dinner. I used roasted peppers from Alexander valley Farm for this recipe, both hot and sweet. You can use jarred rep peppers or pimentos as well.”
– Katie Wetzel Murphy, AVV Owner and Ambassador

Cayenne pepper or Tabasco sauce

Method of Preparation:
