how do I make macaroni and cheese?
how do we have mac as well as cheese? not the box kind though homemade, as well as the easiest reduction mixture kind. my grandma attempted to give me the single with similar to 5 opposite cheeses as well as the little instructions for the rue, which i do not know what which is. So any ideas?
Yes you need a roux. It thickens the sauce. It is made from melted butter and flour. Mac and cheese is just cooked mac noodles and cheese sauce. It couldn’t be more simple.
Here is a basic cheese sauce recipe:
INGREDIENTS
* 2 tablespoons butter
* 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
* 1 cup milk
* 1 cup shredded cheese, such as cheddar or swiss
* Salt and pepper to taste
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour, being sure to combine it with the butter very well, to make a roux. Let cook, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes. Do not let it darken. Gradually add the milk, about 1/4 cup at a time, whisking or stirring vigorously to incorporate. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until thickened and just starting to boil, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the cheese and stir until melted. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as desired.
Notes: For a thinner sauce, add a little more milk. For a milder cheese flavor, add less cheese. Add other seasonings as desired.
Note: Velveeta, while easy to work with, is a highly processed cheese and is not very healthy. Use whole cheese and make the sauce from scratch. It will not only be healthier, but it will taste better also.

LikeDislikeMelt stick of butter, add 3 tablespoons of flour to make a roux on the stove. Then add 1 evaporated canned milk (is the best) and 1 can of water. Cook these items on low until it comes to a little boil. Stir with a wire wisk.
Put 2 cups shredded sharp cheese into the sauce. Melt and stir. Add salt and pepper to taste. Next, add 1/2 tsp. of powered mustard, it gives it a little bit of a kick. Continue to cook for 5 minutes on low.
Cook 1 package (2 to 3 cups) of elbow macoroni. After it is boiled and drained transfer noodles into 9×13 Oblong Baking Dish. Pour sauce over the noodles.
Finally, take crushed bread or cracker crumbs over the top of the mixture. Add 3 dabs of butter over the top of the cracker crumbs.
Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes. This recipe rocks!!
