Not sure it's a repeat considering the high fat content.įirst time making baked Mac and cheese and I thinks this one turned out perfectly. Left a lot of things to wash, and kids were only so-so about it. Would make it again but undersalt the pasta and not any salt to the cheese.ĭefinitely a heavy mac and cheese dish. I made this tonight and came out too salty. I cooked the pasta very al dente and assembled it 10 hours ahead, baked it for 45 minutes because out of the fridge, broiled it for a couple minutes to brown the top. Made it for a party and people kept finding me to tell me how great it was. But the best Mac&cheese I've made (or maybe even had). Extremely cheesy, so you have to like a very cheesy and rich Mac&cheese.
I added grated parmesan on top of the bread crumbs and broiled it for two minutes at the end. I also sautéed the bread crumbs with crushed garlic which added a great flavor. I followed the advice of others and "only" used 7 cups of grated cheese and it was plenty cheesy. SO GOOD! I made this as a gluten free dish using Jovial brand brown rice pasta, Ian's gluten free panko breadcrumbs and Bob's 1:1 GF flour and it was amazing! Everyone loved it and had no idea it was made gluten free. I did steal a few large bites before packaging it up for delivery it was very difficult to resist gobbling it up! I used Tillamook sharp cheddar for the cheese. And WOW, it was so delicious that I am sad that I am delivering it to them! Disclaimers: I have not baked it with the crumb topping yet (but tasted the crumb topping adding a handful of cheese to the breadcrumbs is a great idea) and I modified the recipe by microwaving the milk rather than using a third saucepan to heat it (used a quick-read thermometer to make sure it was hot but not boiling temperature.) Otherwise, no changes. However, I am doing a fair amount of cooking for elderly relatives who said they loved it, so I searched for a recipe that sounded decent, and put it together in short order. I baked in 2 10" pie pans and tossed some bacon in one and topped with Trader Joe's Crispy Jalapenos, delicious!Īs a kid, I did not like Mac and cheese, so I haven't made a habit of making it as an adult. Bake at 350☏ for half an hour, or until bubbly and golden brown.I followed the recipe pretty close but found 2 bags (1Pound ea) of elbow macaroni was perfect for the huge amount of cheese sauce.Transfer macaroni to a lightly greased casserole dish. Turn off the heat and stir in cooked macaroni. Add cheese in handfuls, stirring well after each addition.Add salt, pepper, mustard and red pepper. You don't want the mixture to boil, but you do want a simmer in order to fully thicken the sauce. Bring the mixture up to a simmer, and reduce heat.Slowly add all the milk, whisking constantly. If you add small amounts at a time, you'll avoid lumps. Add milk, a little at a time, whisking constantly to ensure the mixture remains smooth. If you are using onions, whisk in grated onion.Cook butter/flour mixture for about one minute. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat butter over medium heat.Cook pasta according to directions on the package-about 10 minutes. The water should taste like sea water-this makes sure the pasta is seasoned all the way through. In a medium saucepan, bring heavily salted water to a boil.Baked Macaroni and Cheese - Recipe Directions
