Steps:
- Cook vermicelli according to package directions; return to pan.
- Drain liquid from mushrooms and add enough water to make 1 cup; dissolve the bouillon cubes in this liquid.
- In a medium saucepan, saute the onion in the margarine until soft.
- Stir in flour and mustard; cook, stirring constantly, just until bubbly.
- Stir in the milk and the mushroom liquid mixture.
- Cook and stir until the sauce thickens and boils for 1 minute.
- Pour sauce over vermicelli, then stir in mushrooms and ham.
- Pour into a baking dish that has been sprayed with nonstick spray.
- Sprinkle with Parmesan. (Amount to taste, but I think it tastes best with the top surface of the casserole pretty much covered.)
- Bake at 350° about 1/2 hour, or until bubbly hot.
Tips
- Use a variety of mushrooms for a more complex flavor.
- Add a splash of white wine or sherry to the sauce for a richer flavor.
- If you don't have any cooked ham, you can use deli ham or even leftover Thanksgiving turkey.
- Be sure to cook the pasta al dente, so it still has a slight bite to it.
- Don't overcook the sauce, or it will become too thick.
- Serve the Tetrazzini immediately, or it will start to thicken as it cools.
