Dierbergs Cubed Pepper Jack Cheese

What it is

This is a package of pre-cubed pepper jack cheese. Pepper jack is a semi-soft American cheese made from cow's milk. It is known for its spicy kick, which comes from the addition of chili peppers. The cheese itself has a mild, creamy flavor that is enhanced by the heat of the peppers. These cubes are convenient for immediate use in various dishes. The cheese is typically aged for a short period, contributing to its smooth texture and meltability.

How people cook with it

These cheese cubes are ready to add flavor and heat to many meals. They are perfect for quick additions to dishes where melted or cool cheese is desired.

• Topping for chili
• Adding to omelets
• Snacking on the go
• Enhancing baked potatoes

You can use these pepper jack cheese cubes directly from the package. For melted applications, add them towards the end of cooking to allow them to soften and blend into your dish. They are excellent stirred into hot soups, sauces, or casseroles. When baking, sprinkle them over the top of dishes like mac and cheese or quesadillas before they go into the oven. For cold dishes, they can be tossed into salads or served as part of a cheese board. Their pre-portioned size makes them easy to measure and incorporate.

How it differs from similar foods

Unlike a block of pepper jack cheese, these cubes eliminate the need for slicing or dicing. They offer a consistent size for even melting and distribution. The addition of chili peppers provides a distinct spicy flavor that is not found in plain Monterey Jack cheese.

Who it is for

Home cooks who appreciate a touch of spice and convenience will find these cubes useful.

How to keep the rest

After opening, keep any remaining cheese cubes tightly wrapped or in an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. Consume within a few days for the best quality and flavor. Proper storage prevents the cheese from drying out or absorbing other odors.
