In search of Velvetta Cheese

Cravings : Nachos and Queso

Arrrgh!!! *pulls out hair* I can't believe it! Foiled before I even begin! Arrrghhh...How am I supposed to make queso (Cheese Dip for Nachos) when there isn't a cube of velvetta cheese in the whole of Malaysia?!?!?!!?

As most of you can probably tell from this blog, I'm a person who loves to cook and who loves to eat as well. Not only that, but I'm a person who likes to try and experiment with new foods and recipies. As such one of the greatest challenges I face living in Malaysia, is locating western or european ingrediants. Especially the cheeses. You can imagine the dissapointments I have faced when getting all excited to try out a new recipe, only to have my hopes dashed by the lack of ingrediants. Not for the lack of searching for them...but by pain simple fact that the ingrediant is almost impossible to find! Granted there have been vast improvements in this area over hte past few years or so, but there is still lots to be done.

Oh for the days when I can get buy gyros, velvetta, and more just off the shelves. Till then Brie and Mozzarella will have to do...
