  • Jacques Pépin takes the ultimate American classic (that's right, we're talking about mac and cheese!) and adds his own signature flourish. He starts with a roux of butter, flour and milk, before adding in the cooked macaroni noodles and grated cheddar cheese. He bakes the panko breadcrumb mixture separately, and adds a bit of chives to make it special. Top with parmesan, of course.
    Everyone has their own favorite way of cooking macaroni and cheese. Let us know yours in the comments!
    What you'll need:
    1.5 tbsp butter, 1.5 tbsp flour, 1.5 cup milk, 3 cups cooked macaroni, 1/2 tsp paprika, salt & pepper, 3/4 cup of panko bread crumbs, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 cup grated cheddar, 1 tbsp of parmesan cheese, chives,

      @@funk3nst3in not everyone, my grandma could not cook. A lot of people came out of the depression making food that was simple but not delicious. It really set the stage for them and the next generation to mostly eat canned, frozen, and boxed food.
      I had to learn what real food is. I showed my sibling. We have been trying for years, slowly but surely, to get our mom to eat fresh vegetables and real food. It's much harder than getting a kid to their vegetables. Her mother did not know how to cook like Jacques Pepin. Many people did, but not "everyone".
