this fuckup's thread is the perfect place to explain something about mac and
cheese most likely, the reason your mac and cheese sucks is that your preference
for serving temperature interferes with the need for the dish to be relatively
cool to avoid the sauce breaking, which it will begin to at 160 F. You can
partially solve this with baking, but always briefly at high heat, recipes that
call for 15 minutes or more at 300 are retarded. throw it in at 500 until the
top browns, for a few minutes. This will make your degenerate mouth happy that
it's eating something with hot compontents while also maintaining a perfect
sauce. But generally, you fucks eat food that's too hot.

Very good method OP but overspiced (just the mustard, white pepper and garlic will do) and poor cheese blend.

>> No.13068910

Been doing a lot of mac and cheese practice recently, making it for a big cookout, and I'm wondering how you guys feel about:
>Stovetop mac and cheese
Usually I do this with the just barely enough water trick, condensed milk, cheese, mustard, paprika, and a couple of eggs. But it can also be done with milk instead of water used to boil the pasta. Thoughts on the milk vs water?
>Traditional mac and cheese
Made with a bechamel, the same seasoning and cheese, as well as the eggs. Same question about boiling in milk vs water. This I top with cheese, bread crumbs, and it goes in the oven.
Which would you prefer to see at a cookout between the four options, because I really can't decide myself.

>> No.13068921

>>13068079
I'm all for weird shit in the kitchen and experimenting, but this is awful. You have made mac and cheese soup.
Cook the pasta separately and set aside. Make the cheese sauce properly with a roux, cream, spices, and a blend of cheeses. Bacon is good at this point too. COOKED BACON. Mix and bake to finish with a good cheesy breading or bread crumbs on top that get nice and crispy and don't let it dry out like bad baked ziti.

I don't really have a recipe, I just kinda wing it each time and mine is not classic american mac and cheese at all. The "classic" recipe is just shitty cheddar/american cheese, milk, butter, and macaroni. Soupy and salty.
I do a stick of butter and maybe a quarter cup of flour to medium darkness, then slowly add whole milk and whisk until even. I like Cavatappi the best for the noodles, cook those al dente on the side. Grate more cheese than you think you need. I use about three 8 ounce cheeses. One should be strong cheddar, the others I usually use a mild Fontina and smoked Gruyère. When the milk is nearly boiling start adding the cheeses slowly and keep it from burning. Shouldn't take long. On the side, melt butter and toss in seasoned bread crumbs. Add the noodles to the sauce, pour the whole thing into a deep baking pan, top with the buttered bread crumbs, and throw the whole thing in the oven. Trick is getting the sauce level and thickness right. Too much and its soup. Too little is dry. Want it right in the middle so at serving temp its not dripping but not a solid mass either.

Ah yes, with the cheese "sauce" like a lumpy, thick paste, just like everyone imagines when they think of mac & cheese: Pasty and dry.

For fuck's sake if you're so fucking averse to making a bechamel/roux for an actual cheese sauce, just shred a bunch of cheese, toss with a bit of corn starch, and slowly heat it up with evaporated milk in a saucepan while stirring like an overclocked oil pumpjack until it becomes smooth liquid. Fucking there, it might still be a little grainy if your stirring arm is weak, but now you have an actual liquid, runny, goopy cheese sauce that is made (and tastes) of actual cheese. If I hear one more person recommend making mac & cheese with Velveeta or "Cheez Whiz" I will fucking force both of their hands into two Cheez Whiz jars whereupon they shall be stuck all day.

It also completely washes away the starch coating on the noodles, fucking up the absorbency, adhesiveness, and texture of the noodles as they are combined into the dish! Wow! So handy!

At least her sauce looks perfectly liquidy and smooth. Unironically, that's what macaroni and cheese is supposed to-
>Almost - It still needs to bake. One last dish...
And voila! What was so -nearly- perfect macaroni and cheese is now a dried-out, congealed, bland, baked noodle casserole. But you know, you absolutely MUST bake it! After all, how else will you get your depression-era-filler breadcrumb topping (and top layer of noodles) all crispy and dried-out? Every boomer bakes their macaroni and cheese, even if it ruins the macaroni and cheese, because that's how you get the top crunchy! You MUST have a crunchy top, and you have to do it like the boomers or else it's wrong! Mac and cheese is supposed to have a flavor profile of "warm" and "starch", despite containing a fucking pound and a half of cheese! Celebrity boomer chef even said so!

The first time happened somewhere private, I didn't find out about it until after the fact. The second time was in our house. I could hear it through the walls, but my mind stretched out to more innocent conclusions; I was literally unable to believe what it was doing. The third time... it made me watch. It got off on it. It wasn't the shock, or the confusion; it wasn't the realization, or the fear, or the desperation; it was the hate: the hate that curled out of my mouth with every shaking breath of all three of us, the hate that poured from my unblinking eyes as I slowly lost any ability to do anything other than hate what I was looking at, the hate that radiated from my entire body in ever-increasing waves as first I trembled, then it trembled, then she trembled - it drank it all in. It gorged itself on my hate, gulping it down greedily, aggressively, joyfully - an almost childlike thrill and playfulness in its eyes - as it furiously bent and crushed and tore at the only thing to ever show me any bit of true affection and care in this life, and it just couldn't get enough. However... I have had quite enough. I am no longer a child, the trembling has long since gone; the hate remains. Now, no one - neither casserole nor man - shall continue to defile anything I hold dear again. By the way, I hope you're reading this, mac and cheese casserole, because I want to look into your eyes and see you knowing it would happen and that there was still nothing you could do to stop it. I want to drink in all the other reactions you didn't care about. I want to bend, and crush, and tear anything that you ever held dear... because all that hate you just couldn't get enough of - is coming to fill you up.

Seriously though I just like creamy mac and cheese and when I get dry, cakey mac and cheese I'm always just a little bit disappointed. I'll still eat it and like it, but I'll just always like it a little less.

You can try using any mild and creamy tasting, easily melting cheese available to you, cheddar if possible. He's using "deli deluxe" "pasteurized process" American cheese not "processed cheese product". I'm not saying Kraft deli deluxe is high quality cheese by any means, but it's just cheddar cheese with some added water, milk fat, and preserving agents and dye. You could probably get the same results by using mild or medium sharp cheddar and compensating in the recipe by adding extra milk.

It SUCKED. I fucked up the sauce somewhere along the lines and instead of creamy cheese sauce it was like a gelled crappy particularized mess. The flavor was on point and I kinda rectified it by shamefully melting more cheese on top afterwards, but I feel like I should follow a measured recipe for the sauce next time because clearly there was an imbalance. I will try again in 10 days time.
