Note
For best melting results, grate your own Gouda cheese rather than using pre-shredded varieties, which often contain anti-caking agents that can make the sauce grainy.
Keep the dip warm by placing the serving bowl over a candle warmer or in a slow cooker set to "warm."
Serve immediately with sturdy dippers like baguette cubes, pretzel bites, or raw vegetables such as carrot sticks, celery, and bell pepper slices.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of milk if the sauce becomes too thick.
