Steps:
- Cook the macaroni in plenty of salted water until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain and cool. Mix together the prosciutto, cream, milk, Parmesan and nutmeg. Add the macaroni and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon into a 11- by 7 1/2-inch baking dish. Sprinkle grated Swiss cheese over the top. Bake at 400 degrees until the cheese is lightly browned, about 20 to 25 minutes. For a crustier top, place the dish under a broiler for a few minutes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality cheese for the best flavor. A combination of Gruyère, Emmental, and Appenzeller cheese is a classic choice.
- Grate the cheese yourself instead of using pre-shredded cheese. This will help the cheese melt more smoothly and evenly.
- Use a large pot to cook the pasta so that it has plenty of room to cook evenly.
- Cook the pasta until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it hold its shape when it is baked.
- Make sure the milk and cheese sauce is hot before you add the pasta. This will help the cheese melt smoothly and evenly.
- Top the macaroni and cheese with breadcrumbs before baking. This will give it a golden brown and crispy crust.
- Bake the macaroni and cheese until it is bubbly and golden brown. This will take about 30 minutes.
- Let the macaroni and cheese cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to serve.
Conclusion:
Swiss macaroni and cheese is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its creamy, cheesy sauce and crispy breadcrumb topping, Swiss macaroni and cheese is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
