Notes: Pimento cheese is a southern staple. I prefer Cabot's Vermont Seriously Sharp Cheddar Cheese. No matter the brand you choose, it is important to finely grate the cheese. Duke's Mayonnaise is a must! No substitues allowed. Depending on your preference, you may add more or less mayonnaise than listed. The pimento can be finely diced or left in larger pieces and more may be added. Be sure to keep the pimento cheese chilled since it contains mayonnaise.
