Useful tips for Artichoke Dip

Here’s a few tips (after quite a bit of trial and error).

Stop cooking the "cheese" when it has this consistency. You want it to be stir-able with the other ingredients.

It's tempting to make a couple of these and freeze one. Don't. We've found that the texture is slimy if you freeze and bake this recipe. Make it fresh, eat it straight out of the oven.
