Can someone give me a really good macaroni and cheese recipe?

I want to make mac and cheese for Thanksgiving tomorrow.


I've been looking online at recipes, but they all seem weird.


Like some of them say to use mustard and chicken broth.


That just seems weird to me.


I want to make really creamy, yummy mac and cheese, that would be served in like a southern restaurant.


Can someone help me?Can someone give me a really good macaroni and cheese recipe?
MMMMMM this one is great!!!! Have a great turkey day!!!





BEST MACARONI AND CHEESE





2 c. (8 ounces) elbow macaroni


1 stick butter


1/4 cup minced onions


3 tbsp. flour


2 c. of milk or light cream


1/2 c. dry white wine (or water)


2 c. grated sharp cheddar (1/2 pound)


1/2 cup bread crumbs (topping)


Salt and freshly ground pepper


Cayenne to taste 1/2 tsp. paprika





Bring 4 qt. salted water to a rapid boil and cook the macaroni until not quite tender. Drain macaroni and set aside.


In saute pan, melt 1/2 the stick of butter (or 4 tablespoons). When melted, stir in the breadcrumbs and toast just until lightly browned. Remove breadcrumbs from pan and set aside. Wipe pan clean with paper towel and re-use for next step. Breadcrumb topping: Melt remaining butter, add onions, and stir over low heat until onions are just translucent, but not browned. Stir in the flour and seasonings. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Add the wine, then gradually stir in the milk or cream.





Simmer over low heat, stirring constantly until the sauce is thickened and smooth. Add cheese and continue stirring until the cheese melts.





Combine the macaroni with the cheese sauce. Turn out into a generously buttered casserole dish (approximately 1 1/2 quarts). If you have any extra grated cheese, you can sprinkle this on top along with the 1/2 cup of buttered, toasted bread crumbs.





Bake in a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for approximately 20 minutes or until heated all the way through and golden brown on top.Can someone give me a really good macaroni and cheese recipe?

Temper in the egg. Stir in 3/4 of the cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Fold the macaroni into the mix and pour into a 2-quart casserole dish. Top with remaining cheese.


Melt the butter in a saut茅 pan and toss the bread crumbs to coat. Top the macaroni with the bread crumbs. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and rest for five minutes before serving.








Stove Top Mac and Cheese

1/2 pound elbow macaroni


4 tablespoons butter


2 eggs


6 ounces evaporated milk


1/2 teaspoon hot sauce


1 teaspoon kosher salt


Fresh black pepper


3/4 teaspoon dry mustard


10 ounces sharp cheddar, shredded


In a large pot of boiling, salted water cook the pasta to al dente and drain. Return to the pot and melt in the butter. Toss to coat.


Whisk together the eggs, milk, hot sauce, salt, pepper, and mustard. Stir into the pasta and add the cheese. Over low heat continue to stir for 3 minutes or until creamy.
boil water open the craft box add macaroni boil until soft drain water add powered cheese and a few of you faves from the local deli along with milk and butter and some cut up steamed broccoli.... cant miss
Not sure of the exact recipe but my friend makes his with like 10 different cheeses and then he toasts some bread and crumbles it all across the top then he pops it in the oven. It makes it a little crispy, its really good. Sorry I'm not much more help!
Those ';weird'; ingredients give the recipe its flair. Try it and also use at least three different cheeses like; cheddar, Parmesan, and cream cheese (for creamy). Finally add a few dashes of hot sauce and mix in well with the milk and flour... very Southern. Happy Thanksgiving!
