Ingredients
- 3 cups milk 2%
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt fine sea salt
- 450 grams macaroni pasta or shells, like in the photos
- 2 Tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 cups evaporated milk
- 2 cups cheddar cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- paprika dash of
- Tabasco sauce for serving
Instructions
- In a large, heavy bottomed pot, such as a cast iron Dutch oven, combine the 2% milk, water and salt. Bring to a boil, then tip in the pasta, stirring slowly with a wooden spoon.
- Cook the pasta in the milk, partially covered with a lid, over medium-high heat until al dente, about 9-10 minutes; it should be slightly underdone when you bite into it. Do not drain!
- Reduce the heat to medium-low. Stirring constantly, add the butter, dijon and evaporated milk to the pot. Slowly sprinkle in the cheese, a handful at a time, and stir until melted. The sauce will thicken as the cheese melts and the pasta finishes cooking.
- Remove the pot from the heat. Season with pepper and paprika. Taste the mac & cheese and shake in a little extra salt, if desired. Cool slightly, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and coats the pasta. Serve at once.
Notes
- If you have access to mild fresh herbs such as chives, basil, oregano or thyme, toss a few in or on top of the finished dish for a little aromatics.
