Stovetop Macaroni And Cheese Recipe


Stovetop Macaroni And Cheese Recipe
I don't like homemade macaroni and cheese that starts with a white sauce. This recipe produces a rich, velvety-smooth sauce with no graininess.

Ingredients
  • Toasted Bread Crumbs:
  • 1 cup fresh breadcrumbs from French or Italian bread
  • Pinch table salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter , melted
  • Creamy Macaroni and Cheese:
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
  • 2 teaspoons table salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard , dissolved in 1 teaspoon water
  • 1/2 pound elbow macaroni
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 12 ounces sharp cheddar cheese , American cheese, or Monterey Jack cheese, grated (about 3 cups)

Directions
  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix bread crumb ingredients together in small baking pan. Bake until golden brown and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes; set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, mix eggs, 1 cup of the evaporated milk, pepper sauce, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, pepper, and mustard mixture in small bowl; set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, heat 2 quarts water to boil in large heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and macaroni; cook until almost tender, but still a little firm to the bite. Drain and return to pan over low heat. Add butter; toss to melt.
  4. Pour egg mixture over buttered noodles along with three-quarters of the cheese; stir until thoroughly combined and cheese starts to melt. Gradually add remaining milk and cheese, stirring constantly, until mixture is hot and creamy, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately topped with toasted bread crumbs.

Yummy. I love macaroni and cheese and always looking for different ways. This one sounds great. Thanks for sharing.


I made this, but... *sigh, cringe* confession: It was shaping up really good when I... messed it up. I was using Colby Jack and decided to put a dab of Ranch - ONE or the OTHER, I think, but not both, not one more time again. Actually, it was still really good (just wangy). My husband liked it, too!
