Also David for Tobias's recipe, if you have any left over, you could put it in the freezer until it hardens up, cut it into little bite size cubes, dredge them with beaten eggs and seasoned panko and fry them up for some incredible fried mac and cheese treats.

i really like babish's mac and cheese. he does kenji's more simple stove top version that i think is the perfect easy one. and he does another one with whole grain mustard that adds a nice texture throughout it and also has mozza cubes so it has stretchy parts. and those became 2 things i'm always down for

[@Rabooie]

David, have you ever considered taking that "best part of each version together in 1" part of your fettuccine alfredo video and doing it for more of these? I think it would be a great finish to these, especially if you put it up against the other competitors in the ranking to close the video!

[@bobdylan1968]

Yeah! Like all the recipes would have been best over the stove, and then broil the cheese crust on top. That's what I do. Best of both worlds.

If youre lactose intolerant all you need to do is check if the cheeses have sugars (since lactose is a sugar). If it has 0g then you can eat it! You can also use fairlife milk! That is how I (a very lactose intolerant person) can recreate everything.

[@guardianrandy]

I would love a follow-up video to this where you rate how each of them tasted after reheating the leftovers. Like you mentioned, the Tobias Young one will definitely thicken a lot more as it cools, so I'd be curious if your opinion stays the same after it's been in the fridge and gets reheated.

[@creepyspookyicky]

I've made it two Thxgvngs now & I did end up adding a bit of milk when reheating it. It wasn't DRY DRY it just wasn't as creamy as it had been fresh. That said, I only made a quarter recipe the first time & a half the second bc we didn't have that many ppl & I didn't want a ton of it leftover. At the price point of the ingredients & how incredibly delicious it is fresh, I don't think it's meant to hang around past like one time for leftovers if that.

[@nutmegosaurus]

[@jacobk.8744]

You should try out Adam Ragusea's stovetop mac & cheese! He uses sodium citrate which helps to emulsify the cheese, you don't have to make a roux and the sauce is extremely creamy and cheesy. The best part about using sodium citrate is you can use any cheese you want and it will make it melt like American cheese would.

[@liviscorner992]

Tobias' is soooo good and a traditional soul food classic. Great job!!!

[@gabrieleghut1344]

In the 1980s I had a boyfriend who was a cook in the US army and made a great Mac&cheese. He took the recipe from the army mess hall (made it in a smaller size) and he used condensed milk + cheddar + American cheese + Cheyenne, but no flower and no eggs. The elbow macaronis were cooked in the condensed milk cheese mix with a stick of salted butter in the oven for about 45 minutes. Cheese mixed with breadcrumbs and butter were put on top for the last 20 minutes. It was delicious 🧀

[@puggirl415]

I guess that confirms the idea that I should try and adding some sweetness to my Mac and Cheese which I have never done. I think I will try honey or maple syrup or even corn syrup cos I don't want to open a whole can of condensed milk for less than a quarter cup. Will try 1 tablespoon to see what happens.

That last recipe is absolutely ridiculous. I had to know so I calculated how many calories it has, approx 11000. If I had to guess that little square he cut out would be somewhere between 1/12-1/16 which means that tiny plate of food had approximately 800 calories.

[@BriBCG]

@Just Ez Not really true, I would guess most people who eat it have it at least semi-regularly. That said, if you don't put pounds of butter and cheese in it it's not too horrible for you ;) That recipe in particular should definitely be saved for special occasions, though!

I thing Kenji just recently said something like he will stop using just terms for his recipes. Everyone knows that he's one of the best chefs out there, so no need for it!

[@angelagriffin5130]

My favorite is Adam Ragusea. Basically macaroni, cheese, butter, milk (I use cream), wine, garlic powder and mustard powder. No flour, no processed cheese. You just add sodium citrate powder. It's really just a salt. But it makes the smoothest liquid gold. No roux. Or processed cheese. And I can make it with any cheese, like cheddar or Gouda or havarti. I recommend trying it. The recipe I used before that was a different Kenji recipe. 4 ingredients. Cheese, macaroni, evaporated milk, and water. It's the most simple recipe I have ever come across.

[@TheNinnyfee]

Freeing yourself from the cream cheese blockage was great. 😄 You may need to do another round on this, Mythical Kitchen at least had one more M&C recipe and I bet there are more.

See, I’ve found grittiness seems to come from pre-shredded cheese, usually from the potato starch they use in the store bagging.

[@underlightning1709]

I’m a former chef here to say that this is exactly right! Don’t use store shredded cheese in your Mac n cheese, it’s got tons of added starch and will clump up when heated.

[@wingracer1614]

This is true but it works in Tobias' recipe because of the Velveta. Tons of emulsifiers in it that help make anything creamy. If you're using Velveta or some other American cheese, you can add in some pre-shredded stuff for flavor without too much trouble. Still better to not use it though.

[@puggirl415]

I'm inspired now to make macaroni and cheese from this random recommendation in my feed. I really enjoyed this video. I mostly follow Martha Stewart's mac and cheese 101 recipe. Over the years I've tweaked it for my own pleasure but the addition of a Swiss cheese gives mac and cheese an indefinable edge over other mac and cheese casseroles without it. The addition of a hard Italian cheese like Parm or Pecorino Romano also gives the casserole some bright sharp cheesiness. Otherwise, it's the same technique of making a roux, a bechamel which turns into a classic Mornay sauce with the addition of the cheese. Mustard or mustard powder is a must as well. I've even experimented using alternative milks and adding broth to the bechamel to make it less dairy-centric. Bottom line: Learn the method for making a smooth cheese sauce then choose your own favorite cheeses, making sure to use some that are very melty and liquid and some that are saltier and nuttier. I plan to make mac and cheese out of what is in my kitchen right now. It will include grated Sharp cheddar, Gruyere and Pecorino Romano for both the sauce and the topping. I will throw in some vegan cream cheese that was too acidic for my taste but will take the place of regular cream cheese and/or creme fraiche. I will add a small block of goat cheese that's been in the freezer and needs to be used. One of the more interesting things to do with Mac and cheese is to cook it in different types of pans. This time I will use Food 52's method to get more chewy cheesy crust which is to bake it spread thinly on a cookie sheet. Leftovers will be cut into rounds and put into the waffle iron for a delicious way to eat next day Mac and cheese. When you've got the craving for mac and cheese you must follow through. Thanks for the fun review.

I've tried southern mac and cheeses, and I think they put the cheese in the background because of the strong seasoning.
