Gouda Pimento Cheese
We were going to the Cotton Bowl, the first in the new Cowboys Stadium, when I discovered my new favorite Pimento Cheese spread: Gouda Pimento Cheese. (And it doesn’t use smoked Gouda.) As every good Southerner knows, you must have a tasty pimento cheese recipe in your recipe box. I’ve always said that when Southern girls get engaged, our moms give us a stack of handwritten recipes, including Pimento Cheese, Pound Cake, and Fried Chicken.
What is pimento cheese?
Pimento Cheese is a popular Southern spread consisting of cheese, pimento peppers, mayonnaise, and seasonings. This cheesy spread can be used in a sandwich, or a grilled sandwich, to top burgers, or as a dip with crackers. It can be eaten hot or cold. And it’s great for picnics and tailgating. Try Gouda Pimento Cheese for a delightful twist!

When tailgating before football games, you’ll always find Pimento Cheese, brownies, and bourbon. We have also added garlic parmesan white bean dip and and first place chili to our favorites.
That brings us back to the Cotton Bowl. So we stopped at a random chain grocery store with a little gourmet deli to pick up some items for tailgating before the BIG game. I choose this interesting Gouda Pimento Cheese. WOW!!! It was fabulous. We don’t have that particular chain of stores in Mississippi, so we had to recreate this cheese spread.
