So I've been craving mac 'n cheese for about 2 days now, but really didn't think I had the ingredients for it, I also look and didn't have a premade box either. (Sad face) But tonight I double checked what all I had and said "F it, I am going to make mac 'n cheese!!" And did! Sometimes you just gotta double check whatcha got and do with what you have!
1 Tbsp butter
1 1/2 tbsp flour
1 cup milk
3/4 cup cheese
1/4 box of pasta
Alright so the precise measurement might be off, cause I eye balled it mainly its usually how I make my sauces. But this as close to precise as possible. The pasta I used was zigi rigati.
Bring water to a boil, add salt. Then add the pasta, cook for about 8 mins. When pasta is cooking place butter into sauce pan, let cook down. Once the butter is melted add flour slowly whisking as you add, making a roux. Then add milk, once again slowly adding while whisking. Once these ingredients are combined add cheese, small handfuls at a time. Whisk until smooth, then add next handful of cheese until cheese is melted in. Once pasta is done cooking, drain and add to sauce, stir. Add salt and pepper for taste. For this experiment I also added 5 dashes of hot sauce. Delicious if I must say! :)
