Homemade Mac And Cheese (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
Regular macaroni from the store.
02 -
Butter from the fridge.
03 -
Regular flour.
04 -
Onion powder.
05 -
Normal milk (full fat works best).
06 -
Any hot sauce.
07 -
Salt.
08 -
A block of sharp cheddar cheese.
# Instructions:
01 -
Boil the pasta until it's done, drain it in a strainer.
02 -
Put butter, flour and onion powder in a pot. Stir it around on medium heat until the butter melts and it gets bubbly. Keep stirring for a minute.
03 -
Pour in the milk bit by bit while stirring. Keep cooking and stirring until it gets thick like cream.
04 -
Turn off the stove. Add salt and a bit of hot sauce.
05 -
Add cheese bit by bit, stir until it melts. If the cheese isn't melting, put it back on low heat for a minute.
06 -
Mix in the pasta. That's it.
07 -
Want it baked? Heat oven to 350. Put it in a dish, add more cheese on top, cook 15 minutes. If you want the top brown, stick it under the broiler but watch it close.
# Notes:
01 -
The hot sauce just makes it taste good - doesn't make it spicy. You can use mustard if you want.
02 -
Some people like bread crumbs on top when they bake it.
