Excerpts
4 to 6 main-course servings; 8 to 10 side-dish servings
This noodle dish is very creamy and very cheesy. The size of the pot is essential in this recipe -- it must be big for the sauce to thicken correctly. If you do not have a 7-quart pot, you can cook the elbow macaroni in any pot; then prepare the cheese sauce on its own in a 12-inch skillet and, once it has thickened to the desired consistency, add the cooked pasta and stir to coat it well before serving.
Bring to a rolling boil in a large pot:
12 cups water
1 tablespoon salt
Add and cook just until tender:
2 cups elbow macaroni (8 ounces)
Drain and return to the pot. Add:
4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Stir until well blended. Add and stir together until smooth:
One 12-ounce can evaporated milk
12 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, grated
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon dry mustard dissolved in 1 teaspoon water
I teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground red pepper, or to taste
Set the pot over very low heat and, stirring constantly, bring the mixture to the first bubble of a simmer, 5 to 10 minutes. It should thicken noticeably. This may take several minutes. Increase the heat slightly if the sauce is still soupy after 5 minutes, but watch it very carefully. Do not overheat (above 170°F), or the sauce will curdle. Serve immediately. If you are not ready to serve, remove the pot from the heat, cover the surface with plastic wrap, cover the pot, and let stand at room temperature.
