Categories     Cheese

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 lb elbow macaroni
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne
2 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese (about 6 ounces)
1/2 cup fine breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Emeril's Original Essence

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold running water. Drain well.
  • Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons butter in a heavy 3-quart saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the flour, and stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, being careful not to let the flour brown.
  • Using a whisk, add the milk in a steady stream and cook, whisking constantly, until thick and smooth, 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Add the salt, pepper, cayenne, and 2 cups of the cheese, and stir well. Add the noodles and stir well. Pour into the prepared dish.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese with the bread crumbs and Essence. Sprinkle evenly over the macaroni and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

This mac and cheese is a bit too bland for me. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

I love that this recipe uses sharp cheddar cheese. It gives the mac and cheese a nice sharp flavor. I also like that the recipe includes bread crumbs. They add a nice texture to the dish.

I'm not a big fan of mac and cheese, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so creamy and cheesy, and the breadcrumb topping adds a nice touch of crunch. I'll definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and my mac and cheese turned out perfectly. It was creamy, cheesy, and had the perfect amount of crunch from the breadcrumb topping. I will definitely be making this again!

This mac and cheese is a bit too rich for me. The cheese sauce is very heavy and the breadcrumb topping is a bit too crunchy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I was a bit skeptical about making mac and cheese from scratch, but this recipe proved me wrong. It's so easy to make and tastes even better than the boxed stuff. I'll definitely be making this again.
