**RECIPE, SERVES 1 AS MAIN DISH, 2-4 AS SIDE DISH**
1/4 lb (113 g) dried elbow pasta
1/3-1/2 cup (80-120 ml) milk
1-2 (15-30 g) tablespoons butter (depending on how rich you want it)
1 cup (100 g) any semi firm cheese(s), grated and packed
1 teaspoon (4 g) sodium citrate
OR
1/2 cup (3 slices, 50 g) processed cheese (American cheese, "cheese slice," etc) torn and packed INSTEAD of sodium citrate
1/2 cup (50 g) any semi firm cheese(s), grated and packed
For the breadcrumb topping
1/2 tablespoon (7 g) butter
1/8 cup (11 g) breadcrumbs (I like panko)
1/8 teaspoon herbs and/or spices (I like Herbs de Provence)
Grate your cheese - my favorite combination is smoked gouda and sharp cheddar. Get a pot of salted water coming to a boil for the noodles.
Make the breadcrumb topping by melting the butter in a small pan on medium-high heat and mixing in the breadcrumbs, stirring constantly. When they're almost brown to your liking, mix in your herbs/spices and cook for another minute before dumping everything out on a paper towel to drain a cool.
Get your noodles cooking. In a cold pot, combine the milk (start with a smaller amount because you can add more later), cheese, sodium citrate (if using), and butter. Start melting on medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Once it is totally melted and simmering, consider adding more milk if the sauce looks too thick - remember it will thicken as it cools to eating temperature.
Drain the noodles and stir them into the sauce. Add in any additional seasonings to taste - I like a little garlic and mustard powder. Transfer to a plate and top with the breadcrumbs. - Навчання та стиль

Q: Was that cheese $599??
A: Hah, no. $5.99.
Q: Didn't you already do this recipe? ua-cam.com/video/KcM_MZoJWOo/v-deo.html
A: That's a recipe for a baked mac & cheese. When I made it, a lot of people asked me if I could do a recipe for stovetop mac & cheese, so that's what I did! The recipes are not interchangeable - generally if you're gonna go stovetop, you want much less milk/water.
Q: Is this better than Kenji's recipe, which just requires macaroni, cheese and evaporated milk? www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2017/01/3-ingredient-stovetop-mac-and-cheese-recipe.html
A: That's for you to decide! Kenji's recipe is brilliant, but I do think emulsifying salts get you a noticeably smoother product that's also more stable - it reheats better, for example. But Kenji's use of evaporated milk for its protein content and viscosity is brilliant. Another advantage of this recipe, though, is that you can get the lactose content way down by using water instead of milk. Old Man Ragusea is getting lactose intolerant too, I'm sad to say.
Q: Do Brits really call American cheese "cheese slices"?
A: Yes! Looking at the grocery sites, that's generally how they're marketed. (Search "cheese slice" at Tesco, for example). I think I first heard the term in this Heston vid: ua-cam.com/video/6WPq5jtW5J0/v-deo.html Some folks here are saying they call it "plastic cheese," which makes sense, though that's obviously not the therm you'll see on the package at the store! Another marketing term I've seen for it across the pond is "burger cheese." If you're unsure of what you've got, just look at the ingredients and look for emulsifying salts. Processed cheese has them, real cheese doesn't.
Q: Does it have to be the "deli deluxe" American cheese?
A: Absolutely not. Kraft Singles, for example, would be fine. Anything that has sodium phosphate or sodium citrate in the ingredients should work. Or, as I demonstrated, you can just buy some sodium citrate, which is what I do.
Q: Could you boil the mac in the milk instead?
A: It would be tricky to cook macaroni in that small a quantity of milk without the milk burning, but I'm sure it's possible.
Q: Did you accidentally show your address here?
A: Meh, kinda. Not a big deal. In most American counties, your address is a matter of public record if you own your home, which I do. Tons of peoplefinder websites scrape the tax records and aggregate them in searchable databases, like anywho.com. You could get my address by just googling "Adam Ragusea address." You're on your honor to not come murder me.

The last question startled me
Nice that you've included a shot with spoiled sauce.
Internet recipes are lacking this. They only show what it's like when going the right way, but it's hard to spot if something is off.
More importantly, he explains what exactly went wrong. A lot of people would look at the spoiled result of their hard work and have no idea what exactly they did wrong.
*war flashbacks of Binging with Babish dropping an entire tiramisu on the ground because he installed the mold incorrectly*
You can use flour when you first stir in the milk and butter and it will always prevent this from happening because it will keep the sauce thick enough to prevent it from separating
Edit: you should only use a few pinches - it will retain the smoothness while still being able to act as a binder

I find it satisfying
This recipe has been a huge hit in my house, even with my picky kids. It looks creamy, it tastes delicious, seriously everyone in my family loves it. And I don't feel as guilty as when I used to make the box stuff.
“I usually drain through a gap in the pot lid - that way I don’t have to get a strainer dirty” I relate to this and I love you for it!
I do it for that reason, too. Though my main reason is it seems to keep the stuff hotter as it's staying in the hot pot, minimizing the surface area, and minimizing the amount exposed to air
I keep spilling half my pasta into the sink every time.
@@lilacfunk yeah no that is am acquired skill and washing a strainer is totally worth it to me
@@lilacfunk If you use a lid that's slightly larger than the pot, you can keep it with a relatively tight seal that has just enough natural gaps to let the water run out, without risking spilling the pasta. Have one from an old slow cooker that's my go-to draining lid.
@@lilacfunk Make the gap smaller then. Water can run through much smaller spaces than pasta.
One thing I discovered recently is that "smoked gouda" sold in stores usually has sodium citrate or some other emulsifier in it as well; it's basically super fancy american cheese. So you could use that instead of kraft slices if you were so inclined.
i imagine the proportions of sodium citrate is probably a lot lower though so it might not work as well
Remember that craft had to convince the us government that American cheese wasn't really cheese
I might try that.
I would just use pasta to thicken the milk

As a science nerd, I love that you explain why certain things work. Knowing why certain techniques work on a scientific level seems like it can some benefits.
That originally was the whole purpose of science. If you knew how and WHY something worked, you could reasonably predict how similar things might (or might not) work, rather than just trying random things a thousand times and hoping for a miracle this time.
@@lwilton yeah, shame the disipline evolved away from it roots so quickly, origional science was help for the common man, an industry dedicated to making expensive mistakes so you wouldnt have to. Science nowadays has gone so far affield it barely resembles logic anymore.

It's so nice to learn a bit of food science to help me out with cooking. The way you and Kenji go about things is my favorite way to learn about food! Maybe if you haven't already, you can do video essays on good food science books you've probably read? Anyway, thanks! This was delicious!

I used this cheese but with some sauteed cauliflower instead of macaroni and it was absolutely fantastic. Thanks!
I love sharp cheddar, if it gets sharp enough it becomes safe for lactose intolerant people, or so ive observed with my own finicky gut
The more cheese ages the less lactose it has
Knife cheddar has entered the chat*
Hard cheeses like parmesan are safe for lactose intolerant people as well. The older a cheese, the sharper and less soft it becomes, and the the more whatever lactose it originally had has been broken down by enzymes in the cheese. Science!
@@i.liad.a Lactose is not broken down by enzymes, but by the bacteria that age the cheese. The enzymes that are used during cheese production are the curdling agent for the milk.

Because the times I made mac and cheese, I really haven't been able to taste the cheese and it would be grainy. After close to 13 years of when I first attempted homemade mac and cheese at the age of 15, I finally have one to use that I enjoy.
I was a little worried I ruined mine because it was so thin, so I'm glad you included that tip on spotting grainy-ness on the sides of the pan when stirring. That helped a lot! My husband loved it!

Perfect timing. I needed to make lunch just as this popped up. Hands down the best stovetop Mac I’ve ever made. My whole family just demolished it. I used in addition part asiago. Some hotdogs for the kids and a drizzle of truffle oil for my wife. Thanks man! Love your channel. 😁
bruvzki No, because half the cheese was real sharp cheddar and asiago. Plus some seasoning. It’s only had the creamy goodness that American cheese gives. If it just tasted like American cheese I wouldn’t like it. 😉
This recipe is pure genius. Just two or three slices of processed cheese can make any cheesy pasta seem like a restaurant-quality dish, because the sauce just becomes so silky. My next plan is to use this to perfect Caccio e Pepe, since I always have an issue of parmesan clumping in the sauce
I like how you also show what happens if you mess up, how to recognize it, and either how to fix it or when to recognize to move on

Tried this out, and it was super yummy, quick, easy, and cheap! I've seen other recipes that use an emulsifier, but it never dawned on me to just use the excess emulsifiers already in processed cheese!
Some changes I made were to use the Parm/seasoned panko instead of plain, and adding to the sauce before tossing w/ pasta:
1/8 tsp - store-bought cayenne chili powder (could probably use a dash of Frank's Red Hot instead)
1/4 tsp - salt
1/4 tsp - fresh ground black pepper
1/4 tsp - store-bought mustard powder
Next time I'm going to try adding a pinch of fresh garlic powder or fresh onion powder, and some crumbled thick bacon or grilled chicken.
This has been perhaps my favorite of his recipes. I love making subtle changes to the flavors. I used a smoked gouda and bacon cheddar once and made the near meatiest, gooiest Mac ever. This recipe is my cornerstone now lmao.
Fun fact! You can absolutely make this in a microwave! Boil your pasta in the microwave, find a way to strain the noodles, then instead of consistent mixing, nuke for 20-30 secs and keep stirring, nuking, stirring, nuking. You can get the near same effect by doin that.
Using cheese slices to make this is such a brilliant idea-yet another one from your channel. I honestly haven’t seen anyone else on UA-cam produce such great food-related content so consistently-it’s incredibly rare for me to find one of your recipes/ideas I don’t want to make myself (I just love your overall cooking “philosophy”, for want of a better word).
Made this recipe today!!! I went out to the store and bought some "fancy" Asiago and it was so delicious!!! I can't believe that homemade Mac n cheese could be so creamy- it's amazing to turn one of my favorite comforte foods into a decadent experience hehe. Thank you again for the simple easy recipe!!

@@Den-jy7yq ???? How?? My freezer is already running, keeping my other food frozen. It doesn't use anymore electricity than it's already using. 😂
@@taylorbritt499
Putting piping hot stuff in the freezer damages it, and putting hot items in the fridge in general also uses up more electricity and charges more in your bills
@@Den-jy7yq that’s not been true since the 80s or so, vintage equipment can be overwhelmed this way but modern stuff can handle it and in fact many nations’ health agencies now recommend sticking hot stuff in the fridge while hot if you’re planning to keep it in the fridge anyway. It cools quicker (and therefore with less opportunities for microbial growth) than leaving it out at room temp and being vigilant about putting it in the fridge (another potential danger point if you overshoot it).
Yes you might use slightly more electricity, but fridge and freezer use much less power than say a TV and computer, and if you’re only doing it briefly to speed up cooling it’s barely more than 10-20 minutes of extra running the compressor.
Just tried this, it was a life changing experience, in the sense that I could feel my arteries go down by 1 size
Tasted good too

Well he's still making the cheese sauce more or less the same way, and i'm sure he still makes it in the oven for himself. He said he makes this version for his children, and he probably wanted to make this for people who don't have an oven, while reviving an older video for his larger audience and giving himself some leeway with an easier video before a bigger project (supposedly).

This man is like the modern day Alton Brown. I have absolutely binge watched the hell out of his channel, learning crap I didn't even think about. And his experience in journalism really shines through. This is just amazing.
For mac and cheese I always put a good teaspoon of dijon mustard and a box of frozen spinach, makes it much more nutritional, the spinach works well with the flavours, and because it's frozen you can use it whenever (I usually put the spinach in with the pasta when the pasta is nearly done).

Thank you for this. Whenever I see the homemade version, I think "The only real mac and cheese comes in a box." This scientist appreciates the education. I'll definitely try it.
I made this as a side dish today. Really good stuff. Thanks Adam!
You taught me so much in such a short video. I was able to make some great home made mac and cheese for my family so quickly, and they loved it too! Thank you!
