    Інгредієнти

    6 Tbsp unsalted butter (2/3 stick plus more for greasing)

    1 Tbsp plus 1/2 tsp fine sea salt (divided, plus more to taste)

    1 lb elbow macaroni pasta

    1/2 cup reserved pasta water

    1 Tbsp extra-light olive oil (or other neutral oil)

    6 cups shredded medium cheddar cheese (16 oz)

    2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (6 oz)

    1/3 cup all-purpose flour

    3 cups whole milk

    1 cup heavy cream

    1 tsp paprika

    1 tsp mustard powder (or 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard)

    1 tsp garlic powder

    1/2 tsp onion powder

    1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper (plus more to taste)

    Напрямки

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 3-quart or 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.

    Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add 1 Tbsp of the salt and the pasta and cook according to the package instructions, until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water and then drain the pasta. Immediately drizzle the noodles with the oil to prevent sticking and set aside.

    In a large bowl, stir together the cheddar and mozzarella and set aside (you should have about 8 cups total).

    In a 5 1/2-quart Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. When the butter foams, whisk in the flour. Continue whisking for about 2 minutes, until the flour just starts to turn golden in color.

    While whisking, slowly stream in the milk, cream, and reserved pasta water. Continue whisking until the mixture is creamy, smooth, and just beginning to boil.

    Add the paprika, mustard powder, garlic powder, onion powder, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the pepper. Whisk to combine, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, continuing to shish, for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened to a light gravy consistency.

    Add 3 cups of the cheese mixture to the pan and stir until melted. Add another 3 cups of the cheese mixture (you should have about 2 cups remaining for topping the dish) and stir until melted. Stir in the pasta to coat. Turn off the heat and season with more salt and pepper, if needed.

    Pour the mac and cheese evenly into the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle the remaining 2 cups of cheese over the top and bake for 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For an even more golden-brown topping, set the oven to broil for the last 2 to 3 minutes of baking. Serve warm.
