When You Make Nacho Cheese Do You Put Flour In It?

Question

Because I noticed my grandma did, and I wondered if you always have to put it in, or if this was just her thing. Oh, and this is nacho cheese from scratch not from the big can you get at Smart & Final :)

Thanx in advance

Answer 1

absolutely not. It was probably just used as a thickening agent. It will be more flavorful if you just simmer it and reduce as opposed to rushing the process with flour or cornstarch.
