Huancaína Sauce (Peruvian Cheese Sauce)

I dumped, but my recipe is similar to this one. I used about 4 cloves of garlic, some cream cheese AND boxed cream AND queijo minas and plenty of black pepper. I also used lemon juice and should have used lime. Oh well. Aji is traditional and gives the best flavor. If you substitute, try to use a pepper with heat and a bit of heft like a jalepeño. Cayenne would work in a pinch too.
