Ingredients
- 1 pound pasta, any shape.
- 1 1/2 cups whole or 2% milk.
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour.
- 2 to 3 cups shredded cheese.
- 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- 1/4 teaspoon powdered mustard.
According to your wish
Ham, bacon, onions, peas, mushrooms, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower.
Procedure
Take 4 quarts of water to a boil over high heat in the pasta pot. Add the pasta and one tablespoon of salt. Cook until the pasta is al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain it and set aside. When the pasta has finished cooking, prepare the cheese sauce. Begin warming 1 cup of the milk in the saucepan on medium heat. Whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of milk and the flour until there are no lumps. When you just start to see tendrils of steam rising from the warming milk, whisk in the milk and flour mixture.
Continue whisking gently until the milk thickens slightly to the consistency of heavy cream, 3 to 4 minutes.Turn the heat to low and begin mixing handfuls of cheese into the milk. Stir in the salt and mustard. Stir until all the cheese has melted and the sauce is creamy. Taste and adjust the seasonings as desired. Remove the sauce from heat.In a large serving bowl, combine the pasta and 1/2 of the cheese sauce. Stir to coat the pasta evenly. Add the second half of the sauce and any extra add-ins.
Serve the macand cheese immediately with a cold drink and enjoy the taste.
