![]() ![]() Because of the evaporation and sterilization process of making the milk, it doesn’t curdle during cooking. That’s where the evaporated milk comes in. Finally America’s Test Kitchen came to the rescue (they always do)! I realized my grainy mac & cheese has been due to my fresh milk slightly curdling when heated. I’ve tried different cheeses and different recipes in the past to no avail. I’m always disappointed when I try to make homemade macaroni and cheese because it’s always grainy. ![]() So what makes this macaroni and cheese so creamy? Nope, it’s not any of those crazy ingredients you see on the Kraft Blue Box…it’s evaporated milk! Not bad clean up for Philip either! (I do the majority of the cooking, he does the dishes-it works well for us). We were eating by 12:30 with only one bowl and one pan dirty. 2) I really wanted it if I was willing to do anything but heat up leftovers or make a sandwich. Because Philip and I usually don’t get home from church until after noon, this is definitely saying something-1) It is a breeze to make. It actually was supposed to be made later this week, but I couldn’t wait and it jumped to Sunday for a lunch meal. I took it as a sign and put macaroni and cheese on my menu planner app. Philip and I enjoy watching episodes of America’s Test Kitchen and soon after writing that post, they had a segment on macaroni and cheese. You know when I said a couple weeks ago I would probably start craving macaroni and cheese after talking about all my childhood favorite “recipes” (I don’t know if you can consider the Blue Box a recipe)? Well, it happened. ![]() My mouth waters just remembering those creamy, cheese-covered noodles my taste buds experienced when I had this on Sunday for lunch. Would you just look at that creamy goodness! How can you even resist? I couldn’t. ![]()
