HOW TO MAKE MACARONI AND CHEESE

(Food culture exchange)

Macaroni and cheese is one of America's popular foods.  Made from macaroni and cheese sauce and then baked.  Here is a practical version of the recipe. Macaroni and cheese is known as a practical dish for breakfast, snack or practical lunch.  The main ingredient is elbow macaroni type paste, which is curved in half a circle.  Stir with cheese sauce then mixed with cheddar cheese.  Some are eaten just like that, some are baked.

 

Ingredients:                        

- Macaroni                

- Water

- Cheddar cheese

- Milk

-  Corn starch

*disclaimer: I add milk and cornstarch to make the food creamy. in the photo I use sweetened condensed milk.  but I replace it with whole milk

Directions:

1. Fill a pan with water and heat it on the stove

 

2. When the water is boiling, pour the macaroni into the pan

 

3. Stir the macaroni to prevent it from sticking together

4. Turn the heat down to low or medium heat and leave the pan lid at an angle so that heat can escape the pan without causing the boiling water to overflow

 

 

 

5. While the macaroni is cooking, take out the cheddar cheese and use a grater or a knife to cut it into small pieces. Place the grated cheese aside and put in the cornstarch

 

7. When the macaroni is at the right softness (you can test it by taking some out with a spoon--careful! Hot metal burns), drain the hot water from the pan    

  

 

8. Put the milk in the macaroni which has been drained and Enter the cheese that has been covered with cornstarch. stir until it Thickens

note: I use cornstarch to bind the milk and thicken it quickly

9. serve in containers,  macaroni and cheese ready to be enjoyed

Note: because my macaroni is not stringy, so I add milk and cornstarch to make it creamy. if you like it spicy, you can add it with chili sauce.  but because I don't like spicy, so I don't add sauce
