GOLD CADILLAC MAC 'N CHEESE

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16-ounce) package elbow macaroni
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1 cup chopped white onion
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
1/2 to 1 cup chicken broth, as needed
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 cups shredded yellow Cheddar
Salt
White pepper
1/4 cup Cheddar crackers, crushed, with a few left whole for garnish (recommended: Pepperidge Farm Goldfish)

Steps:

  • Boil the pasta until al dente and drain well so that you don't have excess cooking water which will dilute the flavor. While the pasta is cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, and add the onion, cooking until translucent. Add the flour a little at a time to make a roux. Do this gradually because some batches of flour absorb more than others and you may not need as much. Incorporate enough of the chicken broth a little at a time to form a smooth sauce. Simmer for a least 10 minutes to allow the flour to "cook out." Add the heavy cream and Cheddar, then season with salt and white pepper, to taste. Then fold in as much pasta as you need to acquire the right consistency for macaroni and cheese. Transfer to a 3-quart baking dish and sprinkle with crushed crackers. Heat in oven for a few minutes to toast the crackers. Garnish with the reserved whole crackers and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the flavor of your pimento cheese. Use fresh bell peppers, sharp cheddar cheese, and creamy mayonnaise.
  • Shred your own cheese. Pre-shredded cheese often contains additives that can affect the flavor and texture of your pimento cheese. For the best results, shred your own cheese using a box grater.
  • Don't overmix the pimento cheese. Over рікing can make the pimento cheese too smooth and runny. Mix the ingredients until they are just combined.
  • Chill the pimento cheese before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and will make the pimento cheese easier to spread.
  • Garnish the pimento cheese with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include chopped pecans, crumbled bacon, diced tomatoes, and sliced green onions.

Conclusion:

Cadillac pimento cheese is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a dip, spread, or sandwich filling. With its creamy, tangy, and slightly spicy flavor, it's sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. Serve it with your favorite crackers, vegetables, or bread and enjoy!
