Ingredients
- 6 to 8 jalapeno peppers
- 1 teaspoon sea salt, plus more for seasoning
- 1 teaspoon ground black or white pepper, plus more for seasoning
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 2 ounces honey
- 1-ounce hot sauce (Franks Red Hot, or any hot sauce will do
- 3 to 4 ounces fresh spinach
- 4 cups grated white Cheddar
- 3/4 cups mayonnaise
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Put the jalapenos on a sheet pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and roast in until the skins look like they are blistered, about 15 to 20 minutes. Put the jalapenos in a mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let them cool. When the jalapenos are cool, remove the skin and seeds. Put them into a food processor and puree until smooth. Add the cream cheese, honey, hot sauce and spinach and puree until incorporated. Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl and add the cheese. Stir in the mayonnaise, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.

I made this for a party last year, yea I kno I'm just now getting around to my review! lol I thought it was pretty good but not as good as the Pimento recipe by Greg Auten of The Penguin. I may try it again someday and try & figure out what I did wrong, if anything. I was the only one who seemed to eat any of it at the party. But that was poor planning on my part since some ppl at this get together don't like or can't handle spicy, not that I thought it was real hot tho. I kept the leftover's so it could be snacked on & the one thing that I particularly noticed was that as it sat in the frig, it tended to get watery... hmm? May be sum1 could tell me why it might do that?
