Not Your Moms Mac And Cheese

My mom's mac and cheese has "ruined" me- no other mac and cheese recipes I've ever eaten have compared to the unique taste of mom's. Worchestershire sauce and yellow mustard give it a unique flavor-the ultimate comfort food!
Ingredients
- 3 Tbls flour shopping list
- 2 Tbls butter shopping list
- 1 1/2 tsp yellow mustard shopping list
- 3 tsp worchestershire sauce shopping list
- 1 can evaporated milk shopping list
- 1 10 oz block extra sharp white cheddar (like Crackerbarrel) cheese, shredded shopping list
- Just less than a 16 oz box of elbow pasta shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350*.
- Cook elbow macaroni according to box directions (drain and set aside).
- While pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a medium bowl.
- Combine butter w/all of the ingredients (EXCEPT the cheese) and microwave for 3 minutes, checking/stirring regularly as to not burn (cook time WILL vary w/microwave).
- Add cheese to thickened white sauce and microwave for 1 minute at 70% power (if cheese isn't completely melted upon stirring, microwave a little longer).
- Mix white sauce and pasta in a round 2 quart casserole dish...here's where mom and I differ. I prefer to serve now, all saucy and gooey while *mom prefers to bake for 20-30 minutes in the oven at 350 (until top is browned).

Yum! This is a great alternative to the normal yellow cheddar cheese in the mac! Has a nice bite! I agree with lovestohost that it's better before you bake it. Baking it makes it not near as creamy and liquid-y. I did only bake it for like 15 mi...more
