    Just a hint when you're grating/shredding your cheese, turn the grater on it's side so you pushing the cheese backwards and forwards rather than pushing it up and down. It's faster and a lot easier on your arms, particularly when you're doing a lot of cheese!

    Looks great! I do something very similar, but bake it at the end with some bread crumbs on top for about 10 minutes. The sauce is almost like fondue, like what you're making.

  • @hawkeye88tx
    @hawkeye88tx Před rokem

    Like you, I cannot recall where I've seen the recipe before...but I do almost the exact same thing every year. The only variant is that I top mine with a mix of grated parmesan, finely chopped bacon, and panko bread crumbs and then pop it under the broiler for like a minute to crisp it up. (tip: cook up the bacon a bit under so that it doesn't burn when you put it under the broiler)

    I make clotted cream when I have too much heavy cream or it is getting close to the best before date. Then I freeze it in portions. I think it would work PERFECTLY here because it is already reduced by 1/2 and has a distinct rich nutty flavour. 💡

    I cook the pasta I am using very Al Dente, run under cold water to stop the cook, put it on a cookie sheet and put a cold smoke it. I then build my sauce, assemble with some secret ingredients( hint.. one of them is a bit of mild blue cheese) and bake until the pasta is finished. As the pasta finishes cooking it absorbs the sauce flavor etc.

    Great video. I LOVE mac n' cheese. At the time of your filming, I happen to know for a fact that Kroger Heavy Whipping Cream is $5.49 a quart, so you're using $11 worth of cream. I'm sure it's phenomenal (I use this Kroger cream for my coffee) but that's a lot of money for most families, particularly as it is just a small part of the cost. I hope cream will come back down in price over the next months, and if it does, you can bet I'll be making this recipe. Thanks, MadMan.

    My method is to cook and drain the pasta, then cut up probably a third or so of a block of Velveeta into cubes, pour in milk, add the cubes, and put a lid on it til the cheese melts on low heat. If making it for myself I would crack a shitton of black pepper into it, but I'm the only one who likes pepper in mine os I don't get to do that anymore.
    I would like to try this at some point, I think we have an enameled Dutch Oven from Le Creuset, but I don't know if I can find that fancy g cheese around here anywhere, I live in a very rural area and I haven't heard of it, though I'm not exactly a cheese connoisseur.

    There are sooo many ways to make Mac and cheese. I found that when you make Mac and cheese for a large group of people, one thing you have to be careful of is the amount of parmesan cheese you use. Parmesan cheese has a strong flavor. Too much can ruin the cook. I too have tested many ways to make Mac and cheese. I thought the roux was the best way. Everyone is different. I also replaced water with chicken stock to boil my macaroni. Or what ever pasta I choose to use. The broth adds a great flavor to the pasta and you don't have to use as much salt. I also have expanded my Mac and cheese by adding smoked brisket. I had some left over brisket and used it on my Mac and cheese and it was a huge hit. Everyone raved over it.

    I will be trying this recipe for sure, I just catered a party and did 20lb a of Mac and cheese, I did the same noodles but this looked way better then my standard béchamel sauce I did, I did not cook out the flour taste enough :( Also, I live in the same sweater from Orvis from Costco, I have if in both colors, lol so warm!

      Sounds great just make sure to budget enough time to reduce the cream without burning it. I would try a test batch first
