Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a deep 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
- Make the sauce. In a large bowl, mix the ingredients in order, combining completely between additions. Start by adding the flour, paprika, ground mustard, garlic, scallions, hot sauce, cream cheese, a pinch of salt and more grinds of black pepper than normal. Mix this until combined completely. In a liquid measure, mix the heavy cream and pasta water together and add slowly to the bowl while whisking. Add the Cheddar, Gouda, mozzarella and Pecorino Romano cheeses.
- Bake. Add the pasta to the bowl of liquid and stir until the liquid seeps into the elbows and everything is distributed evenly. Pour into the prepared dish. Level with the back of your spoon. Toss together the Cheddar and mozzarella in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over the top. Bake until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.

NANNY G'S MACARONI AND CHEESE
This is my grandmother's recipe which I grew up on. It is my personal favorite, and without a doubt--the ultimate comfort food. I even love to eat it cold. It is one of my favorite side dishes, since it goes especially well with chicken and pork. Note: this is not a creamy mac & cheese recipe.

Steps:
- Boil pasta according to package in salted water.
- For firmer pasta reduce boiling time by a few minutes.
- Drain.
- Grease a deep casserole dish (I use a spray).
- Place a layer of macaroni, enough to cover the bottom, in the casserole dish.
- Add a layer of cheese slices covering the macaroni.
- Very lightly season with salt and pepper (I actually skip this and we add salt and pepper to taste on our individual servings).
- Repeat these layers until you are out of pasta.
- Pour milk over the casserole until the milk almost reaches the top of the casserole dish (It doesn't take much because the dish is already full of pasta and cheese).
- Bake covered for about 45 minutes to an hour in a 350 degree oven.
- You'll know it is finished cooking when the milk is no longer liquid.
- Sometimes I add leftover ham chunks to the layers.
- Cook time and servings are approximate!

- Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes to one hour. Use the leftover sauce for reheating if there are any leftovers.

Tips:
- Use freshly grated cheese. Pre-packaged shredded cheese contains cellulose, which can make your macaroni and cheese grainy.
- Use a good quality pasta. A high-quality pasta will cook evenly and hold its shape better than a cheaper pasta.
- Don't overcook the pasta. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and won't hold its shape well in the macaroni and cheese.
- Use a roux to thicken the cheese sauce. A roux is a mixture of butter and flour that helps to thicken the cheese sauce and prevent it from becoming runny.
- Season the cheese sauce to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste until the cheese sauce is flavorful.
- Use a variety of cheeses. Using a variety of cheeses will give your macaroni and cheese a more complex flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make macaroni and cheese. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and cooking methods to find your favorite recipe.
Conclusion:
Macaroni and cheese is a classic comfort food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients and cooking methods.
