My personal mac'n'cheese recipe. This is SO good! Please comment, subscribe, and share! Here's the recipe: Ingredients ½ stick butter 3 slices white bread (torn into pieces) 2 ¾ cup milk (2% @100 degrees) ¼ cup flour 1 tsp salt 1/8 tsp nutmeg 1/8 tsp cayenne 2 ¼ oz grated white cheddar 2 ½ oz grated pecorino romano 2 oz grated gruyere ½ lb elbow macaroni What to do: Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish; set aside. Cover a large pot of salted water, and bring to a boil. Place the bread pieces in a medium bowl. Melt 1 tablespoon butter. Pour the melted butter into the bowl with the bread, and toss. Set the bread aside. Warm the milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a high-sided skillet over medium heat. When the butter bubbles, slowly add the flour. Cook, whisking, 1-3 minutes. While whisking, slowly pour in the hot milk a little at a time to keep mixture smooth. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until the mixture bubbles and becomes thick. This will take 5-8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in salt, nutmeg, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and cheese; (Keep some cheese set aside for final topping.) set the cheese sauce aside. Add the macaroni to the boiling water, cook until the outside of pasta is done and the inside is underdone, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the macaroni to a colander, rinse under cold running water, and drain well. Stir the macaroni into the reserved cheese sauce. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheese, and the bread pieces over the top. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer the dish to a wire rack for 5 minutes; serve.
