I am a white woman in her 60's. I remember my grandfather teaching me to make homemade baked macaroni and cheese, probably in 1960s. There was such a ritual to preparing the cheese, cooking the noodles, and layering the pasta, cheese, milk, butter, all of it together. I imagine that he learned the recipe from a black housekeeper when he was young. Whenever I make macaroni and cheese from scratch, I always remember him. Now I will also remember the people of color who passed down the recipe.

I swear black people stay trying to pull in other races who didn't ask to be pulled in. Chinese, Italians, Indians, etc will never allow you or anyone else to claim their dishes. Other races gate keep their culture and it's why they get more respect than us. Everybody knows there's always going to be a black person giving other people permission to step on us. People acknowledge other races food as such, but nobody gives black americans credit for anything, so they don't have to pay us for anything. Whites call it southern comfort food, and make millions off of their cookbooks and tv shows showing how to cook collard greens, cabbage, etc. Knowing full well that it's our dishes, and now a white cook claims that she's adding dressing, their family recipe. Whites can eat what they want, but they are known for making stuffing not dressing, hence the stuffing in a box. We make dressing, and yet their cookbooks are flying off the shelves. Let's be honest, if we start calling it Black American food, they wouldn't want anything to do with it. If they claim sweet potato pie, I'm going to be pissed.

This is one of my all time favorite foods. To learn the history behind it only makes me appreciate it that much more.

Sure! It's easy. Melt 2 tbsp butter over med/high heat. Add 2 tbsp flour. Mix well with a whisk. Cook for a minute or two. Gradually add 2 cups milk, stirring frequently. Keep stirring over med/high heat until it thickens. Add salt and pepper to taste. This sauce can be used for creamed vegetables. I sometimes add a tsp of French onion soup mix. For cheese sauce, add approx. 1 cup shredded cheddar (you can add more or less, according to taste); stir until it's all melted. You can mix and match your cheeses, if you like. Grated romano, swiss, etc., for example. Use this cheese sauce for mac n' cheese. Use additional shredded cheese in layers and on top of macaroni, for a baked mac n cheese casserole.

mac and cheese is a comfort food, a soul food, something thats very filling very simply prepared but gets alot of bang for the buck. And if done just right can seriously be viewed as an exotic cuisine. There is mac and cheese and then there is MAC AND CHEESE. and when you consider the components and the degree of goodness that can be derived in various ways long before you even get into possible adding anything additional, there is no wonder the dish is so coveted. Mac and Cheese with lobster or crab. insane!!!

Wow. I did not know about the long and complicated history of Mac and Cheese. I make it from scratch with usually a combination of 2 or 3 cheeses and add sautéed mushrooms. For me it is still comfort food but I now have a whole new respect for the dish. Very informative video.

M&c is a popular dish in Trinidad and Tobago where it's called "macaroni pie". The simple versions are made of macaroni, cheese, butter, salt, black pepper...more elaborate versions include any combination of eggs, shredded or grated carrots, milk, pimento peppers, diced bell peppers, onion, corn kernels, parsley or other herbs, breadcrumbs, corned beef etc. It is usually baked into a more cohesive form than the American version though. It's usually part of a Sunday meal along with stewed meats and a taro leaves stew called callaloo. It is now part of the national cuisine. 🇹🇹

Just because they put their own spin on it doesn’t make it a black cultural exclusion. And it’s also why the diabetes and the on going health crisis has affected black communities the most. This type of food is for poor ppl like eating the back fat of the hog. Soul food in general is problematic like most southern cooking styles.

Another contributing factor was the federal subsidy of all dairy products. During the great depression, starvation was rampant in financially depressed areas of the country. Even today as prices go up, dairy is still affordable. I grew up in the 50"s and certainly remember having mac and cheese at least once a week. Regardless of color, our parents lived through the depression and those memories and recipes stayed with them. Next question is what about Kool-aid ? I too grew up with that.
