My tween daughter doesnt miss going out to restaurants with the same urgent sting that my husband and I do. But she does miss us going out to eat and leaving her with a cool teenage babysitter, the remote control and a big, gooey pan of baked mac and cheese.

Her favorite recipe happens to be extremely easy , and you can mix it together directly in the pan, without having to boil the macaroni first.

To make enough for 6 to 8 servings, heat the oven to 425 degrees. In the blender, combine 4 ½ cups milk, 1 brick of cream cheese , 1 ½ teaspoons salt, 1 garlic clove, 1 teaspoon mustard powder , a lot of black pepper, and a pinch of cayenne or nutmeg or both. Blend it up until smooth.

Put a pound of elbows or other small pasta shape into a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. .

Scatter 1 pound grated Cheddar on top. I didnt have that much Cheddar, so I used up all the cheese ends in the fridge I also added goat Brie, Gruyère, Manchego and what I think was Monterey Jack, but I honestly cant remember. It was all good.

This is part of a series in which Melissa Clark teaches you how to cook with pantry staples. See more.

How Long To Bake Mac And Cheese

There is only one rule that you need to remember when baking mac and cheese: dont bake it too long otherwise youll bake away the sauce leaving you with a dry mixture.

Baking it at around 20 minutes at 375 degrees F guarantees you that same stretchy cheesy baked mac and cheese with all the heart-melting sauce. Or you can also bake it at 30 minutes at 350 F

Although weve tried a couple of Mac and Cheese recipes, nothing compares to this one which has a smooth silky sauce that permeates every inch of elbow macaroni there is.

Youd fall head over heels with the brimming Southern flavors of what this baked mac and cheese has to offer. Its got a note of heat and smokiness. Youd need a bigger a spoon, for sure!

This would be delightful at any time. Oh, especially during these cold winter months. So dont wait for special occasions to whip up a pan of this.

Heck, you could even make this on the daily. You can also explore different southern comfort food ideas to prepare every day! Go ahead, take a bite, nobodys looking.

Baked Macaroni And Cheese

Macaroni and cheese may seem an easy proposition. Noodles, cheese. But the secret to this creamy dish with a crunchy and crisp top is American cheese. This is no place for fancy cheeses or fancy noodles. Leave the whole-wheat penne and artisanal orecchiette in the cupboard and bring on the elbow pasta.

Food Friday: Mac And Cheese

October 22, 2021 by Jean Sanders

Autumn is sizing us up. It is cooler in the mornings. Old Luke the wonder dog has a spring in his step as we make our morning rounds. I have taken to wearing a light sweater for our first 5,000 steps of the day, and am enjoying the novelty. I imagine that in the middle of gelid February I will be singing a different tune, and will be yearning for short sleeves and balmy breezes. As we get used to autumnal changes, I am happily rummaging through my sweater collection, and thinking about other old favorites that I can bring into the dinner rotation, which is in need of a little energizing.

Our cooking routines just make it easier to plan dinner menus and the shopping trips to stock the larder. I know just what we need for Meatless Mondays and Taco Tuesdays and Friday Night is Pizza Night . The routines can become so stultifying. What is wrong with experiencing some novel cooking during the week? Home cooking can be Instagram-worthy, if we can climb out of our precious, convenient ruts.

This week, Pasta Night is not going to be a summer-y , which we have made at least twice a month since May nor will it be our other fave in constant rotation, Samin Nosrats Cacio e Pepe . This week we are going to make adorable, individual baked mac and cheese casseroles, in the coquette pans I have had taking up precious cabinet space ever since I found them on sale last spring.

Classic Baked Macaroni And Cheese

Think Stouffer’s without the freezer. While it can be enjoyed straight from the pot, this macaroni and cheese has a slightly looser sauce than the stovetop variety to allow for thickening in the oven. Bread crumbs, while optional, make it truly spectacular.

Analysis Of The Best Baked Macaroni And Cheeses

Edna Lewis: a tangy, onion-infused, rich and thick mac and cheese

Although the list of ingredients for Ednas southern-style mac and cheese looks forbiddingly long, this was actually a relatively easy recipe! Cubes of cheddar cheese get mixed in with the cooked pasta which eventually gets doused in a mixture of spices, sour cream, eggs and cream plus the unusual addition of grated onion and Worcestershire. Ultimately, everything gets topped with a shower of grated cheese before going into the oven.

This dish is certainly bursting with flavorin comparison with other recipes, this recipe was TANGY thanks to the sour cream. The onion, dry mustard and Worcestershire contributes to the extreme savoriness and the texture was almost like a souffle in places, with the cream and eggs combining to create a very rich casserole effect. While I enjoyed this recipe, I preferred recipes that were slightly creamier and with less tang, which I felt detracted from the cheesiness. Tasters generally seemed to be deterred by the amount of onion in this, but if you like a lot of flavor , this is a great option!

Taster comments:

Alton Brown: a crusty-topped mac and cheese enhanced with onion, mustard powder, and bay leaf

I had to give Altons recipe a try after it won The Kitchns bake off . It starts with a bechamel base infused with onion, bay leaf and paprika to which you add egg and sharp cheddar. Lastly, you top everything off with buttery panko crumbs before baking.

Creamy Weeknight Macaroni And Cheese

Just as quick as the boxed variety, this creamy macaroni and cheese skirts the traditional butter and flour roux with assistance from cream cheese. While the cream cheese adds an important lusciousness, it doesn’t do the macaroni and cheese any favors when it comes to its flavor, so it’s important to use the sharpest, tangiest Cheddar you can get your hands on. For perfectly coated noodles, make sure to cook the pasta in the sauce for a minute or two.

Provided by Alison Roman

Steps:

• Cook pasta in a large pot of salted water until just barely al dente drain.
• Meanwhile, bring milk up to a simmer in a large pot. Reduce heat to low, add cream cheese, and whisk until it’s completely blended and no lumps remain. Add Cheddar cheese and butter, whisking until everything is completely melted. Season with salt and a generous amount of pepper.
• Add cooked pasta and stir to coat. Continue to cook over medium-low heat until the sauce has thickened and is coating each piece of pasta nicely, 2 to 3 minutes sauce will continue to thicken as it cools. Season again with more salt and pepper before serving.

Once the butter has melted whisk in the flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is lightly browned. This will remove the raw taste of the flour. Whisk in the salt and pepper.
• Add milk to the roux: Add the milk and whisk to remove lumps. You can add it all at once or a bit at a time whisking rigorously until smooth.

Southern Macaroni And Cheese

There is macaroni and cheese, and then there is special occasion macaroni and cheese like this one. Unlike most recipes, which start with a roux, this one begins with a milk-and-egg base, which gives the dish an incredibly rich, silky taste. It’s adapted from Millie Peartree, the owner of Millie Peartree Fish Fry & Soul Food restaurant in the Bronx, who has been making this dish since she was a little girl. The recipe was passed down in her family for generations, but because of the generous amount of cheese used, the dish was only made for events like Christmas and Thanksgiving. Extra-sharp Cheddar adds tartness and a layer of Colby Jack creates a gooey, molten center. If you can’t find a Colby Jack blend, shredded mozzarella or a Mexican-style blend will work in its place.
