    100% right on grading your own cheese!! I stopped using bag cheese years ago and it makes a huge difference in how my mac and cheese comes out.

    Good job on your Mac & Cheese! I don't use process cheese either, and I also grate my cheeses. I gradually stir the cheese into the bechamel sauce after turning off the heat. I then ladle the cheese sauce over hot noodles in a large bowl and mix well before adding to my baking dish.The hot noodles soak up the cheese sauce better, and it's easier to mix in a separate bowl than in the actual baking dish. I'm sure your Mac & Cheese tastes as good as it looks. Thanks for sharing.

    Omg 100% on point with this Mac and Cheese. I switched up a few things though, for the Cheeses I added half cup Ricotta some sharp cheddar, Gouda and Monterey Jack topped with bread crumbs Gouda and Colby. I also added some complete seasoning for added flavor. Best Mac and Cheese sauce recipe I've tried 🎉😊

      @@aprilpodeszwa2372I mean honestly with mac and cheese most people just need to know the basics and they can tweak with the cheeses of their choice. Yeah it may not be 100% the same but it allows people to understand how to make the cheese sauce and stuff.

    Let me tell you…my family’s recipe (we are not southern) includes Velveeta (and real cheese) that’s how I was taught to make it. This is thee only thing I’ve used processed cheese for. For several years I’ve been doing different things trying to make my mac n cheese looser and creamier, as well as trying to eliminate the Velveeta. I’ve made a roux before for cheesy potatoes, not even knowing that you could use this with mac! I was looking for a simple recipe to make my own and this was perfect! I made it a few nights ago and the family loved! Thanks so much!😀

    OMG! You are hilarious- Loved your recipe. I'm a natural-born cheesehead so I know mac and cheese lol! Never use Velveeta or any processed cheese and yes always, ALWAYS shred your own. The kind you use depends on the flavor profile you're going for but sharp cheddar should be your base then add in a smooth melting cheese like fontina or gouda and then something like parm. I also add in paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and a splash or two of my favorite hot sauce. I like food that gives me a little kick.

    Is American cheddar very orange? Or was that one of the different cheeses? I want to do this with English (original lol) cheddar, which I’ve been told is the best too

      yes, American cheddar is dyed. I prefer cheese that is not dyed but for aesthetic purposes I used the regular American cheddar lol

    Less onion and garlic powder
    Switch paprika out for smoked paprika
    Make sure you sift your flour next time for the Roux.

      @chefkristalkay  4 роки тому +9

      Sifting the roux is not necessary but thanks. Ive been a chef for 5 years now and ive never seen anybody in this industry do that lol. Ive tried it before with smoked paprika and its great too!

      @@chefkristalkay why wouldn't you not sift your flour? You know lumps happen in sauces, gravy, roux and batters? sifting is key for smooth silky textures! When will you do something breads? A lot of people are really lazy when it comes to making bread.

    • @chefkristalkay
      @chefkristalkay  4 роки тому +1

      Grant West Like i said ive never seen anyone in this industry do that for a roux. That seems like a “home cooks” move. Lumps happen in sauces when you add in flour to an already made sauce or if you add your liquid to the roux and dont stir it in time. Sifting flour is great for recipes such as cakes or cookies though.

      ​ @Kristal Kay Eats Home Cooks?? Ha! I've been working in the food business for quite some time. I have seen and mirror the process sifting flour for each recipe that I have cooked at my job and training. Hence, sifting flour is essential to my repertoire.

    great recipe 😊 but garlic and onion powered are the velveeta of spices, in my opinion. i’d suggest sautéing a brown onion and a couple cloves of garlic in the butter before making the roux, and if you still want onion and garlic powder then you will just need to use less 🥰 i can always tell when someone uses them.
