FAQs

How spicy is the Pepper Jill?

The heat level is moderate. While Habaneros are known for high heat, they are balanced here by the mild Guajillo chili and the creamy fat of the cashews, creating a warm, flavorful glow rather than an overwhelming burn.

Does this cheese melt for quesadillas?

As a soft-textured cheese, it won’t have a “stringy” melt like traditional dairy Jack, but it becomes incredibly creamy and spreadable when heated. It’s perfect for melting into a warm wrap or dolloping on top of nachos.

What are the best pairings for a spicy cheese?

We love pairing Pepper Jill with something sweet to contrast the heat, like apricot jam or fresh grapes. It also works perfectly alongside smoky vegan deli slices and crunchy corn crackers.
