Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Unsalted butter, for the dish
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 pound elbow macaroni with ridges
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups milk
2 cups grated sharp Cheddar
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • For the macaroni: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the salt and macaroni. Bring the water back to a boil and cook the macaroni until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain well.
  • For the cheese sauce: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a 1-quart saucepan. Using a wire whisk, stir in the flour and salt, stirring and cooking over medium heat until the roux bubbles and the flour turns pale brown, about 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in 1 cup of the milk and then whisk in the remaining 1 cup milk. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Add the cheese and stir until it melts. Add the drained macaroni to the cheese sauce and mix thoroughly.
  • For the topping: In a small bowl, stir the breadcrumbs with the butter until the crumbs are moistened.
  • Transfer the macaroni and cheese to the prepared baking dish and top with the buttered breadcrumbs. Bake until the dish bubbles around the edges, about 15 minutes.

A friend of mine sent this recipe to me when I got my first apartment, because she knows how much I hate cooking! It's really easy -- even I can make it -- and tastes great. I'm not sure where she found the recipe, but it included the note 'Good source of protein, vitamin A, B group vitamins, calcium.'

Provided by gailanng

Categories     Thanksgiving

Time 52m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick divided)
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
8 ounces elbow macaroni
1/2 small sweet onion, diced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried mustard
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/4 cup sriracha garlic sauce (this can be adjusted to taste)
1 3/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/3 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spritz a 2-quart casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter. Add the bread crumbs, stirring gently. Turn off the heat, allow the bread crumbs to absorb the butter and reserve.
  • In a large stockpot, bring 2 quarts of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the macaroni noodles and stir. Cook until the noodles are just slightly undercooked, 7 to 8 minutes.
  • While the pasta is cooking, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion begins to sweat, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the flour. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Add 1/2 cup of the milk while whisking. Once the milk has been absorbed by the flour and thickened slightly, add the remainder of the milk, followed by the cream. Add the salt, dried mustard, pepper, and nutmeg. Simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the Sriracha. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups of the Cheddar while slowly whisking, one handful at a time. Once all the cheese has melted, toss in the cooked macaroni, coating the noodles with the cheese sauce. Transfer the noodles and sauce to the baking dish. Top with the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and the remaining 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese. Cover with an even layer of the buttered bread crumbs.
  • Bake, uncovered, until golden brown, 18 t 22 minutes. Allow to sit for 5 minutes so that the molten cheese lava can cool just a touch. Divide into squares, place, and garnish with the parsley.

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for boiling
1 lb dried spathetti

  • Gradually add the half-and-half, whisking for 30-60 seconds between each addition until starting to thicken before adding more. Whisk in the heavy cream until the sauce is smooth and no lumps remain. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly to prevent scorching on the bottom of the pot.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your mac and cheese. A sharp cheddar is a good option, but you can also use a combination of cheeses, such as cheddar, Parmesan, and Gruyère.
  • Cook the macaroni al dente. This means that it should be cooked until it is just tender, but still has a slight bite to it. If you overcook the macaroni, it will become mushy and the mac and cheese will be less enjoyable.
  • Make a roux. A roux is a mixture of butter and flour that is used to thicken the sauce. This will help to prevent the sauce from being too thin and runny.
  • Use milk and cream. Milk and cream will help to make the sauce rich and creamy. You can use whole milk, low-fat milk, or even skim milk, but the higher the fat content, the richer the sauce will be.
  • Add some spice. If you like spicy food, you can add some Sriracha sauce to the mac and cheese. This will give it a nice kick of heat.

Conclusion:

Baked mac and cheese is a classic comfort food that is loved by people of all ages. It is a versatile dish that can be customized to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it cheesy, spicy, or somewhere in between, there is a baked mac and cheese recipe out there for you. With a little planning and effort, you can make a delicious baked mac and cheese that will be the star of your next potluck or family gathering.
