2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

When I was a girl, Mama used Texas longhorn cheese in this recipe. After it melted all over the macaroni, I loved to dig in and see how many strings of cheese would follow my spoonful. -Imogene Hutton, Brownwood, Texas

STOVETOP MAC AND CHEESE



Stovetop Mac and Cheese image

This sauce appears thin at first but will thicken after it's tossed with the pasta. To reheat, add a little whole milk to restore the creamy consistency.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt
4 cups whole milk
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 pound small shell pasta or elbow macaroni
4 cups coarsely grated sharp yellow cheddar (3/4 pound)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

STOVETOP MAC N' CHEESE



StoveTop Mac N' Cheese image

Tired of the processed cheese meals, I've put together this recipe using things I've liked from other recipes. Then there are times I go to make it and don't have everything so I try other stuff. I encourage others to do the same thing and tell me the details in the reviews here. In the time it takes to boil the water and cook the pasta, the sauce is done. Use pasta that will catch the sauce. I use evaporated milk because I read somewhere once that its more stable then milk after its been heated (and reheated). I use a 12 oz can of evaporated milk and top off the measuring cup with milk (so I don't have to open another can). Use cheddar that you would slice up and eat by it self

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (16 ounce) box pasta
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper (White if available)
3/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
2 cups evaporated milk
8 ounces cheddar cheese (shredded)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (shredded)
2 slices American cheese

Steps:

  • Boil a pot of water and cook pasta "al dente".
  • In a medium pot, melt butter on low heat.
  • Mix all the dry ingredients together and whisk into the melted butter.
  • When the butter and flour are incorporated and hot start adding the milk.
  • Don't stop whisking from the time you add the flour until the milk is all inches.
  • Only adding a little milk at a time as to avoid the flour lumping (maybe 1/2 cup at a time).
  • Heat the flour/milk mixture until its bubbling (stirring very often or it will burn).
  • Once it's bubbling start adding the cheese a little at a time making sure it melts before adding more.
  • After all the cheese is in and melted just add it to the cooked pasta and serve .
