It is tasteless and nothing compared to cheese you shred yourself, fresh. Please don't waste your time making homemade macaroni and cheese using bagged preshredded cheese.

Cheese- First I want to make it clear you should use a block of cheese and shred yourself.And I pinky promise you will get a super smooth, thick, creamy cheese sauce that sticks to every square inch of your macaroni. So I made this recipe possible without a roux. Roux's require a lot of work and attention. And if you don't think making a roux is a pain the butt you are wrong. Sometimes homemade macaroni and cheese recipes call for making a roux to make the cheese sauce thick. Well it's easy because you don't need a roux.

Only used sharp cheddar cheese, and actually ran out of evaporated milk so I used 1 cup whole milk and 1 cup evaporated milk. I added Panko crumbs with butter and garlic for a topper and it was a hit!! This will be added to the monthly rotation.įinally found a go to mac and cheese recipe. My husband has been asking me to make a homemade version of mac n cheese. Made it ahead, froze for two weeks and it tasted great. Just make a regular bechamel sauce and add the cheese.BOOM!įantastic recipe. Note: if you're serving men, you'll find that this recipe will make about 6 servings, as opposed to 12. While the recipe calls for shredded cheeses, I like to shred my own, because I think it melts better. To further bring out the flavor of the cheese, I use a bit of dry or prepared mustard (either will work). I love this quick and easy recipe for gatherings, where mac and cheese is always popular. And I believe this recipe is just fine in that context. Long shelf life in the absence of refrigeration is a lasting advantage of evaporated milk. As one reviewer suggested, (if fresh milk is available) why not just make a bechamel with whole milk, butter and flour rather than this base of evaporated milk, water and corn starch? Answer: because the source of this recipe is from the manufacturer of evaporated milk, lol. By diluting evaporated milk with water as in this recipe, the “creamy” viscosity is pretty much lost. Since evaporated milk is about a 60% reduction of milk itself, one may wonder what sense does it make to reconstitute 24 ounces of evaporated milk with 16 ounces of water, rather than just using whole milk? The advantages of evaporated milk up until the point of reconstitution, are a long shelf life in the absence of refrigeration. My husband has requested I keep this recipe and make it again. Made this for Christmas Eve and it was easy to make and received rave reviews from the kids and adults alike.
