queso fundido
Hot cheese dip
Queso fundido is a Mexican dish of melted cheese, typically served bubbling hot in a small pan or dish with tortillas for dipping.
The cheese—often Oaxacan, asadero, or chihuahua—may be topped with chorizo, peppers, or other additions.
It appears on Tex-Mex menus as an appetizer: We started with queso fundido and margaritas.
