**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.

    Q: Was that cheese $599?? A: Hah, no. $5.99. Q: Didn't you already do this recipe? kzread.info/dash/bejne/fZeBwa-Tn629f9I.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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aIuE05ejpLqbepM.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.

    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

Because the times I made mac and cheese, I really haven't been able to taste the cheese and it would be grainy.

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.

    Nice going, Adam. You release this video just three days after I try your baked mac and cheese recipe... Seriously though, thanks a bunch. I enjoyed the baked, but stovetop has always been my preferred method. After learning about your recipes and the wonders of sodium citrate, I'm quite excited to try this and make it from scratch. Never enough cheese.

    Hey, Adam. We’ve been watching your stuff for a few weeks now. We spend too much time on KZread and rarely act on ads but today my wife and I both signed up for Honey. Looking forward to trying this recipe on our super picky kiddo.

    Thanks for this recipe! I used gluten free pasta and this was the perfect way for me to make gluten free mac and cheese as my dad prefers not to eat gluten. I was really surprised with how good the result was in contrast to how quick and easy it was. Keep up the great work!

    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

    Mixing just evaporated milk with your cheese of choice also works, no emulsifiers needed! (I learned this from Kenji, whose videos I found thanks to your conversation. Thanks!)

    I think Kenji’s recipe is great, but I do think emulsifying salts do create a smoother texture and a more stable sauce.
