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.

BAKED MAC & CHEESE W/ GOUDA RECIPE - FOOD.COM
This is one of those family recipes that has evolved over the span of my lifetime. I first learned to cook this when I was a preteen. It continued to tweak it during my married life. I had some leftover Gouda in the fridge and decided to add it. Since then, it has become my picky kids favorite. In our house this is the main meal. Serve with a green salad, steamed broccoli and garlic toast or crusty sour dough bread. EDIT TO ADD 4/2012: if doubling this recipe, use only 5 tablespoons of flour and 6 cups of milk. If you do not, you run the risk of a not so creamy and somewhat dry end result. I have also added a bit more milk because the under cooked macaroni will absorb some of the milk. Feel free to add more American cheese. The amounts can be increased to your liking.

  • April 2012, EDIT TO ADD: if doubling this recipe, use only 5 tablespoons of flour and 6 cups of milk. If you do not, you run the risk of a not so creamy and somewhat dry end result. At times I have added a bit more milk than recommended because the under cooked macaroni will absorb some of the milk. IMO a little creamier is better than too dry.
