Stove-Top Macaroni and Cheese
ingredients
1/2 lb. elbow macaroni (approx. 2 cups)
1 1/2 cups milk
3 cups FRESHLY grated Cheddar Cheese (pre-grated cheese just won't give the same, great results)
2 Tbsp. butter
2 eggs
1 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. dry mustard powder
1/4 tsp. pepper
Pinch nutmeg (optional)
Dash each Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco Sauce (optional)
method
Cook macaroni in a large pot of boiling , salted water according to package directions.
Meanwhile, combine milk, cheese, eggs, flour, mustard and pepper in a food processor or blender. Process until well blended.
When macaroni is cooked, drain well. Return macaroni to the pot and place on a medium burner. Add the 2 Tbsp. butter to the macaroni and stir until melted and pasta is coated with butter. Add the cheese sauce mixture. Cook gently, stirring constantly, until mixture is creamy , smooth and thick - about 3 to 5 minutes.
Season to taste with nutmeg, Worcestershire and/or tabasco, if desired. Serve immediately.
