Instructions
- Shred 1 cup (100g) of Gruyère cheese finely. If pre-shredded, fluff with a fork to separate strands.

- Fold in the shredded Gruyère cheese and 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives until evenly distributed.
- Season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste, starting with ½ teaspoon salt and a few cracks of pepper. Adjust as needed.

- Serve the dip in a bowl alongside your favorite thick, crunchy classic potato chips.
Notes
Use quality Gruyère cheese for the best nutty flavor. Avoid overmixing to keep the dip light and airy. Refrigerate for 10 minutes if time allows to meld flavors. Serve with thick, kettle-cooked or ridged potato chips for best texture. Can be made ahead and stored in the fridge up to 3 days; bring to room temperature and stir before serving. Add a splash of milk if dip is too thick after refrigeration.
