5 CHEESE BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE RECIPE - FOOD.COM



5 Cheese Baked Macaroni and Cheese Recipe - Food.com image

I've adapted this recipe off of others after not finding exactly what I want in the ones I've tried. Try not to use extra sharp or aged cheeses, they don't melt well and contribute to the grainy texture everyone talks about in macaroni and cheese. Also, make sure all your cheese is grated and macaroni is boiled and drained before finishing the cheese sauce. Overcooking or letting it sit too long can also make the texture grainy.

Total Time 50 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups hot milk

1 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 lb elbow macaroni
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, cubed small
2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
1 cup breadcrumbs or 1/2 cup grated cheese

Steps:

  • Grease a 2 quart casserole dish, and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Cook macaroni to desired tenderness and drain, set aside.
  • Combine melted butter and breadcrumbs (if using), set aside.
  • Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat, whisk in flour and cook, whisking constantly for 2 to 3 minutes,.
  • Add hot milk slowly, whisking constantly, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until thickened.
  • Add the grated cheeses to the sauce in small batches, whisking until each one is melted completely.

CREAMY BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE RECIPE - NYT COOKING
This recipe, inspired by Stouffer’s macaroni and cheese, delivers the best of all worlds: creamy, saucy comfort, with a consistency that’s slightly more set than a stovetop version, thanks to a final bake in the oven. It stays voluptuous and molten as a result of a higher ratio of sauce to noodles, which are cooked completely so they don’t soak up as much liquid. The Velveeta is necessary here, as it has sodium citrate, which prevents the sauce from separating in the oven. Elbow macaroni works fine, but cavatappi is an especially fun shape to eat with its telephone-cord bounciness.

ULTRA CREAMY BAKED MAC AND CHEESE - INSPIRED TASTE
Our favorite mac and cheese recipe calls on a few smart steps to make sure the macaroni and cheese is ultra creamy and flavorful. While many cheeses can work in this recipe, the two cheeses we go back to again and again are sharp white cheddar and Pecorino-Romano cheese. The cheddar melts down to be creamy and the pecorino adds a sharp salty bite to the sauce. For the creamiest sauce, we hand grate the cheese since previously shredded cheeses don’t seem to melt as well.

  • Preheat oven to 350° and butter a large, deep baking dish. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook macaroni according to package instructions until just al dente. Drain and set aside.  In a large bowl, combine cooked pasta and butter and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in 2 cups cheddar cheese. Add half of the macaroni mixture to prepared baking dish. Sprinkle Colby-cheddar cheese blend over pasta mixture, then top with another layer of pasta (similar to making a lasagna).  In a medium bowl, beat together eggs and milk then pour evenly over pasta.  Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 to 35 minutes. Do not overbake! It may be a bit jiggly when you take it out of the oven.  Turn on oven broiler. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese. (I add a little more Colby jack as well) and broil until golden! It will firm up as it cool.
