Step 4: Mix in the whisked eggs and spices. Step 3: Toss the butter with the cooked pasta and add the heavy cream, milk, and sour cream and toss. The good news is, the taste wasn’t affected at all. Add the pats of butter and toss until melted. Fold 1 cups of cheese and 1 tbsp of the seasoning through the sauce followed by the cooked pasta. I didn’t realize my mom had a convection oven and I baked at regular temp/time, and guess what happened? Curdled. Directions Preheat oven to 200 C (180 C fan forced). If you have a convection oven, reduce your temp by 25 degrees! If your oven is too hot, it could cause your sauce to curdle. My biggest tip here is to make sure your oven is accurate. Hardly any stovetop cooking required - the oven does most of the work, and oh my gosh guys is this impressive. Then you just toss that cheese mixture with your pasta and bake in a buttered baking dish. Then add your liquid (in this case, we’re using half and half) and shredded cheeses.

Many macaroni and cheese recipes follow this as the base, then it’s just about adding whatever cheese you want. Béchamel is a mother sauce - flour and butter sautéed then whisked with warm milk to create a thick white sauce. That is, of course, unless I made the boxed variety, which happened often. Provolone, smoked gouda, or any other mild cheese versus a feta or flavored cheese.When I was a teenager and even in my early 20s, I thought that making macaroni and cheese meant for sure making a béchamel and adding cheese to it. The goal is to have a lot of cheesy flavor. 2 1/2 cups uncooked macaroni 2 1/2 tbsp flour 1 1/4 tsp salt pepper to taste I use about a teaspoon 4 tbsp butter, thinly sliced 3 cups shredded cheddar. Pour the macaroni and cheese into a baking dish and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Tofutti has a good texture, good flavor, and works really well in this dish.

Moocho Cheddar – realistic color, some brands are weirdly yellow or far too orange, with a good cheddar tang.Cut cubes of your gold butter and put them on the top layer. It’s a new line of cheese and there are a few other good mozz brands out there. On top of the macaroni, pour on 8 oz of sharp cheddar cheese evenly to cover the macaroni.
