Mac n Cheese (Traditional) Recipe

1 Package of Macaroni (any shell pasta)

Cheese Sauce
5 Tbsp Flour
5 Tbsp Butter
4 Cups of Milk
Salt n Pepper (i use white pepper)
2 Egg Yolks
4-5 Cups Shredded Cheese (depending on cheese you can gauge how much is needed)

Panko Crust
1 Cup Panko Bread Crumbs
2 tbsp Butter

Macaroni and Cheese Directions

– have bacon cooked and chopped before hand
– have your water bowling for your pasta in another pot and start cooking half way during the cheese sauce steps
– Oven to 500 degrees ferenheit

1. Start melting your butter in a small pot. Melt and let it heat up till it is bubbling.
2. As your butter is bubbling (but not burning) add all your flour, stir immediately and consistently stir from this point on
3. Once the flour and butter are incorporated and created a paste (rue) slowly add milk. First pour of milk is very little. Heat should be on medium at this point but remove pot from heat when adding milk to help with scorching.
4. Slowly add all the milk little by little until the rue and milk are mixed smoothly together.
5. Add some of the white sauce to a small bowl with the egg yolks, Once you mix these together on the side, go ahead and return it to the pot of sauce. At this point you can turn off the heat.
6. Go ahead and remove the pot from the stove and slowly add the cheese. Little by little and constantly stirring.

7. You should have started cooking your paste by now but if you haven’t you can start and put the pasta to the side.
