Silky Smooth Macaroni and Cheese - Modernist Cuisine

One of the traditional dishes we took on in Modernist Cuisine at Home is classic mac and cheese. While we have always loved this family staple, there is an inherent problem with traditional preparations: all of the virtues of using good cheese are lost when you make a cheese sauce with flour and...

This mac and cheese is super simple and amazing. You need an immersion blender and you have to buy some sodium citrate off of amazon, but beyond that it's a recipe that a fast food thread person can make with 100% success and it's fuckin great. I've also used the recipe minus the macaroni to make the best queso ever.

I made Mac and Cheese last night from scratch. It was fucking delicious. I used three different cheeses, one of them smoked.

My youngest told me he prefers the box of Kraft MacNCheese. I sold him today.

I know you're new to having kids but they do be like that sometimes

I love Kraft Mac. I do put a bit more butter and another handful of cheese to it though.

Cracker Barrell Sharp Cheddar Mac & Cheese is the fucking bomb. It changed my life when I discovered it. Way more expensive than even the Velveeta stuff, but so good. I'm pretty sure that Cracker actually stands for Crack, because that's what I would imagine craving crack is like.

I also put a can of tuna in my mac and cheese, and a healthy dose of the scorpion pepper flakes a coworker gives out every Christmas.

With the powdered cheese or the Velveeta-type moist cheese packets? Makes a difference.

I'm going there to buy some. May have to buy some of that Cheerwine just to try it.

I ordered Jerk Chicken at a local dive Jamaican place that was soooooo amazing, but it came with 2 little unlabeled bottles of red and lemonade-colored drink. Each 8oz. No info on those whatsoever. Small little foil tops to them. I took a sip of one and, it was sweeter than pure sugar. I wish I had a taken a picture of them. I have no idea what they were.

This is more cooking thread level, but this mac & cheese recipe is money. I add in some bacon and jalapenos. So good.

Does this taste better than the normal stuff they have on the shelves? I tried the normal stuff back when I first had kids because I remember loving that shit so much as a kid. And it was disgusting. Most disappointing nostalgia driven food purchase ever.

I mean its not high quality food. I don't care for the beef a roni but i do like the ravioli with meatballs. I love the weird non meat tasting meatballs for some reason. I hardly buy it though, only have it now because I stocked up on canned goods for carona back in February. I also bought some sausage ravioli this time. I will report back.

Walmart has their own fancy Mac and cheese under the great value label. The white cheddar with cracked pepper one is great. Other 3 are pretty good too.

Chick Fil A Mac'N'Cheese is absolutely excellent. Not sure how they make it, but it even has the overcooked/brown cheese sometimes.

2 year old is obsessed with it. "Daddy, chick tay yay pasta please"

I see I might have been a little unclear about the Cracker Barrel stuff. They make a boxed one; I've never actually been to a Cracker Barrel restaurant.

This is the stuff that must have literal crack in it, and I add tuna and pepper flakes to. It costs like $5 though when not on sale.
