I’ve gotten really good at making macaroni and cheese, particularly the cheese sauce, but I’m still a little off on the ratio of noodles to cheese sauce. Either I make too few noodles or far too many. I have not heretofore been measuring the amount of noodles I’ve been putting in; this will change.
My other ingredients:
3 tbsp flour
3 tbsp butter
1 1/2 cups milk
It will feed two people, with each of us having seconds.
So, how many noodles should I use, as measured in cups? Need answer fast, please; I’ll be cooking the food within an hour.
3 cups was good; one big hearty first portion and a smaller second portion, with leftovers. 2 might be better for next time. Will experiment. Thank you both!
A box or two of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, a spoonful of margarine (‘spoon’ being a kitchen spoon for cooking with), two spoons of milk per box of KM&C, a slice of American cheese per box of KM&C, and a handful of Tillamook medium cheddar cheese. (And a little blue cheese if there’s any in the fridge.)
One of these days I’ll make macaroni and cheese from scratch; but around here the point is a quick, easy, tasty side-dish (or main dish for tuna mac).
