[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 74621, member: 1246"] Macaroni and Two Cheeses From: Staff Meals from Chanterelle Every family should have a mac-and-cheese recipe. At Chanterelle the staff and I like ours ultra-cheesy, ultra-creamy, and as rich as possible. Some cooks make theirs in a deep casserole, but I prefer to fix macaroni and cheese in a wider, shallower baking dish so there's plenty of the delightfully crusty top layer to go around. Serve this with a simple tomato salad on the side, or arrange some sliced tomatoes on top during the last 20 minutes of the baking time (the staff calls this the "fancy" version). Serves 6 [LIST] [*][LEFT]Coarse (kosher) salt [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]1 package (16 ounces) ridged elbow macaroni [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]3 cups heavy (or whipping) cream [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]2 1/2 cups grated sharp yellow Cheddar cheese (about 10 ounces) [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]1 small onion, minced [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]1 small clove garlic, minced [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]1 teaspoon Dijon mustard [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]Dash of Worcestershire sauce [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]Dash of Tabasco sauce [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]Freshly ground black pepper, to taste [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan [/LEFT] [*][LEFT]1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs (see box, page 279) [/LEFT] [/LIST][LIST=1] [*][LEFT]Preheat the oven to 400 degrees friend.
