DUTCH OVEN MACARONI AND CHEESE



Dutch Oven Macaroni and Cheese image

This Dutch oven mac and cheese is a staple in my home. I sometimes add burger meat or bacon to it to liven it up but it's delicious enough on its own! Regularly served as the main course with just a veggie side, as it can be a bit heavy if you're a mac and cheese lover who can't resist seconds (like me).

Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (12 ounce) package seashell pasta
4 tablespoons salted butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded medium Cheddar cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
1 cup panko bread crumbs, or as needed
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon taco seasoning mix

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add shells and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Heat an oven-safe Dutch oven over medium heat. Melt butter and flour in the hot pot, stirring, until blended; pour in milk and heavy cream, whisking continuously, until mixture comes to a boil. Continue to boil, stirring continuously, for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; continue to stir until sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
  • Slowly fold in cheeses until melted and smooth. It is okay to raise the heat if you have to, just remember to keep stirring while the heat is on. Fold in cooked pasta until it is coated with cheese.
  • Combine panko bread crumbs, salt, garlic salt, black pepper, onion powder, and taco seasoning in a bowl. Sprinkle macaroni mixture with just enough of the bread crumbs to coat most of the surface; you should still see some pasta underneath the bread crumbs.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn on the oven's broiler and continue to cook until crust is golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for at least 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

Macaroni Schotel (Indonesian Macaroni Cheese) image

Pasta was introduced to Indonesia by the Dutch who would make a version of this casserole in a 'Schotel' or 'schaal', meaning dish in Dutch. The meats can be changed and any vegetable can be added, if you wish.

Categories     Macaroni And Cheese

Time 1h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 ounces elbow macaroni
1 medium onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
0.75 (12 ounce) can corned beef, diced
2 hot dogs, sliced down middle then diced
1/4 lb smoked ham, thinly sliced
1 (8 ounce) box neufchatel cheese
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons sugar
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 1/2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup colby-monterey jack cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Prepare macaroni according to package directions to the "al dente" stage. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large non-stick skillet, saute the onions on medium-high heat for 5 minutes then add the garlic. Saute until garlic is fragrant (1 minute).
  • Add the corned beef and start breaking into smaller pieces. Saute for 3 minutes. Add hot dog cubes and sliced ham and saute for 1 minute more. Set aside.
  • In a greased baking dish, add half of the noodles and top with meat mixture. Spread meat mixture evenly leaving 1/2 inch space around edges of the pan.
  • Top meat mixture with thin slices of the neufchatel cream cheese, leaving 1/2 inch space around edges of baking pan.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine both milks, sugar, eggs, salt, black pepper and nutmeg. Slowly pour half around edge of baking pan so that it can drain under the meat and cheese mixture.
  • In the remaining sauce mixture, add the parmesan cheese and stir well to combine. Pour over top of casserole from side to side.
  • Layer shredded cheese across the top of the casserole. Cover casserole and place in refrigerator overnight.
  • When ready to cook, heat oven to 400 degrees F and bake for 40-45 minutes. Top should be golden brown. Allow to cool for 15 minutes and serve with ketchup and chili sauce, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for Dutch macaroni that is made with durum wheat flour and has a slightly nutty flavor. Use real butter and freshly grated cheese for the creamiest sauce.
  • Don't overcook the macaroni. It should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it hold its shape in the sauce.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick and creamy. If it's too thin, it will make the macaroni mushy. Use a roux or cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce if necessary.
  • Season the macaroni and cheese to taste. Use salt, pepper, and grated nutmeg to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
  • Serve the macaroni and cheese immediately, while it's hot and bubbly. You can garnish it with freshly chopped chives or parsley.

Conclusion:

Dutch macaroni is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it simple or loaded with toppings, macaroni and cheese is sure to please everyone at the table.
