wegman's brand twist.


I want to try this:
Anybody with kids knows that kid food can get more than a little tiring. Hot dogs; plain cheese pizza; grilled cheese sandwiches; mac and cheese.

I've found an excellent solution to this problem - the World's Best Macaroni and Cheese. Yes, it's true, this is the world's very best. It is yummy for grown-ups and kids too.

Here's what you do. Next time you're at Costco (really - they have a great and huge cheese section - or you could get it on Amazon I suppose), look for a big hunk of Fontina and a big hunk of Gruyere cheese. Don't substitute cheapo cheddar or other oily cheeses. You don't want to end up tasting like Kraft.
Amount Ingredient
1 lb macaroni
1/4 cup butter
3 tbsp flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup Shredded Fontina cheese
1 cup Shreeded Gruyere cheese
1/4 cup Breadcrumbs
a bit Parmesan, blue cheese, etc


1. Grate all your cheese and get the macaroni boiling.
2. Stop the macaroni while it is still undercooked.
3. White sauce: melt the butter, mix in the flour.
4. Mix a bit of chicken broth slowly until it is mashed-potato-like.
5. Very slowly add the rest of chicken broth, keeping the sauce white, and boil.
6. Mix in the heavy cream, and boil.
7. Then gradually mix in the cheeses and keep it bubbling.
8. Mix macaroni into the sauce, and put into a casserole dish.
9. Sprinkle breadcrumbs and other seasoning as desired.
10. Bake until browned (400, 20 minutes). Yum!
