Just giving my annual reminder that Mac & Cheese is the most overrated food in history. It's not the main dish. It's dry noodles and cheese. Nada más. Your beloved grannie's version? Your "special recipe"? Your fancy "new take"? All mid. Sorry. It had to be said. Enjoy your day!
If y’all don’t leave Miss Mac & Cheese alone!!! She don’t do nothing but be tasty and comforting 
!!!!
!!!! 
Also, y’all be using noodles of terrible quality and cheese that has no business being eaten period and then blame the dish ! Like come on
! Like come on Also quiet as it’s kept, macaroni is not the “best” noodle for it. Let @Harriet Thee Thugman put you on:
“I use any noodle with ridges. Cavatappi is my favorite. Sometimes penne because it's easy to pack it into a pan.They grab the sauce because of the ridges so it settles very well”
To avoid mushy noodles:
“The mush is the skill of the cook knowing how to cook the noodles before. So, a standard pasta dish will be al dente. These noodles will be even less than that because they finish cooking in the oven.”
“This allows them to soak up more of the moisture and leaves you with the best consistency.”
And that’s all she wrote. Down with mac and cheese slander!!!
