@@kittenmittons1968 I am soooo sorry...I have seen her on other shows where she had no accent and if you listen to just her chats, even now, there is no accent. I was referring to her accent in general...not where they are from and that dialect.

Making these KZbin videos was the best decision you've made for this channel. Don't get me wrong, the blast from the past videos are great and everything, but to see these raw and natural videos of you cooking, no editing, no scripts, etc. It's the best. So easy to follow along to in my Kitchen.

Lol same thought! is it publix brand cheese? I was trying to figure that out 😂

[@GA-girl-Brooke]

Kyle Post most chefs that are on TV (or have been previously, like Paula) use Publix brand or Kroger brand because the tiny circle branding is super easy to cover. 😊

[@MonsterFishies]

It was prolly because it’s hard to find the normal brands you use rn so they prolly just bought whatever they could find.

That is a preference. Sometimes even a small amount of black pepper can be too spicy for a young child.

[@bloodhoneykerri]

mac and cheese is a dish that you can switch up and put your own style into. there really is no wrong way to do it.

[@mygirldarby]

That's a good tip about the al dente pasta. Maybe traditionally they cook the pasta to al dente so that the pasta sauce (like spaghetti or Alfredo sauce) will get absorbed into the noodles. It makes sense after Paula explained that if you undercook these noodles, the dish will be dry because the noodles will take in all the cheese sauce. I'm learning so much from watching Paula cook!

[@kimberly1567]

Makes me livid when someone posts half as*sed content. I watched this video approx 4 days ago thinking i will make this mac cheese later this week. Made a list, went shopping, came home and set about making. I pulled up the link Paula posteed and followed recipe. In the recipe it said to cook mac to boxes instructions 11-12 min. Mix ingredients and stir and youre done. Says nothing of baking. I assume Paula combined two recipes. Again, I consider this half as*sed posting that I hope mine isnt fallingg apart when it comes out of oven

Debbie I have a quick question? What are grits? Are they liked mashed potato or some sort of grain. We don’t have them in the UK. And while Im asking what the hell is meatloaf. Cheers.

[@lisajustlisa2913]

Louis82 grits are made from hominy (corn kernels) and is ground coarsely. Boil or cook them about 20 minutes. Add salt and butter and they are very thick,creamy and buttery. Also can milk makes creamy. Meatloaf? Well many ways to make it but basically it’s ground beef , some add sausage to the mix , egg, bread crumbs,onions, green peppers etc, mixed together with tomato sauce, or ketchup and thrown into a bread loaf pan and baked. It’s served sliced. Many ways to make a meatloaf it’s really all in the cooks desire and provisions on hand. It’s quick , inexpensive, and served on a lot delicious f tables in the south where I’m from.

[@kcso71]

Here's a little tip for very flavorful grits.. In your saucepan, melt a couple tblsp of butter and add your grits. Stir constantly until toasted.. you can smell the toasted corn and they will start to turn color..add water and salt.. stir well and bring to a boil, reduce heat to low.. cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until done. Here in South Carolina, we eat grits with just about everything!! If you want a change of pace, add a dollup of sour cream along with your butter.. cream cheese is good, diced tomatoes and shredded cheese, diced bacon,.. oh my.. and of course shrimp, ham and sausage!! The possibilities are endless!!!

This is the way my mom taught me how to make southern mac n cheese. However, she left out one important detail. DO NOT stir in the eggs until you have poured in your milk (noodles need to cool down or you will have scrambled eggs I know from trying to teach a house mate and her mac n cheese was ruined). I don't use pre shredded cheese it has a coating on it that keeps it from sticking together in the package. ALWAYS buy a block of cheese and grate it yourself there is a significant difference. Other than that she did the Ole Southern Mac N Cheese justice. ENJOY!

Just my point of view from someone who still does watch and enjoy Food Network.

[@hootowlholler3760]

@@ashleys4652 why didn't they fire Bobby for busting up Giada's marriage? Or was it the other way around? Why didn't they fire Drumond after her kid got arrested? Those things happened in the now. You cannot justify going back 30 years in someone's life & persecute them for saying something. That is not a crime. Food Network Sucks for doing that.

[@ashleys4652]

@@hootowlholler3760 Oh ok I see you are someone who believes everything you read on the Internet. The Bobby/Giada rumor was just that. And even if something did go on, that is absolutely NOT a reason to fire someone. Nor is Ree's teenage daughter drinking underage. Spare me the holier than thou rhetoric. Using racial slurs IS a reason for termination. Paula admitted it and apologized, which I give her credit for. Like I said, when the story came out, she left the network no choice. It goes with being a public figure and she was a reflection on the network. Their choice was not to be associated with it in these times. I believe in second chances, that is why I said I wished her and her career well. It's a shame that you don't get that even if something happened 30 years ago it STILL matters, words matter. The fact that you can't admit she did anything wrong is sad because she herself did.

Paula I love you!!! I'm from Austin, TX and have been watching your show for a long time. God bless you. I'm sorry for the hard times you went through, but just want to let you know I never stopped supporting you. I hope to visit one of your restaurants one day. You cook with a lot of heart and soul and I always admired that about you. Thank you. -- AND you're right about Mac n' Cheese and the Al dente thing. I always cook Al Dente when I make Italian dishes, so Mac n' Cheese I assumed it will be the same but you are right because when I decided to upgrade from the Kraft box and ACTUALLY cook-- my mac n' cheese was dryer than the SAHARA DESERT! lol --- I will follow your recipe. Thank PAULA!!

I made this last night and it was great. My parents aren’t huge macaroni and cheese people but this they loved. I used sharp cheddar, white cheddar, mozzarella, pepperjack and Munster.

[@marjorietalcott]

Just a Southerner happy to hear your beautiful voice teaching all these folks what real macaroni and cheese is! All the cheese, all the sour cream, all the cream cheese ..... it only makes it better! Y’all know it’s all about the dairy!

[@kimposada]

[@wendydomsher1973]

That's what's for dinner!!!! (Well part of it!!) YUM!!! I haven't had homemade baked macaroni and cheese for sooooooo long!! My great grandma made some of the best!! I sure do miss her home cooked meals we'd have with her every Saturday growing up!! Also reminds me of a funny story....after my great grandma had passed away my aunt decided she was gonna try to make great grandma's recipe for us. We were all so excited to be having it again!! Well....it didn't turn out as planned!! After we had all made our plates and sat down down for dinner...as soon as we took the first bite we knew something was wrong!! Ummmmm turns out my aunt forgot to boil the noodles first!! It was horrible!! 😆 😆 😆 And I don't think she has attempted to make it again!! But I'm definitely gonna try this recipe!! Looks amazing! I hope my story gave ya a little giggle 😆 and P.S. you and Michael are absolutely adorable ❤

[@karenwingler1647]

This is how I make mine except I add about 1 1/2 TBSP dried mustard powder. So yummy!

[@Elisa98438]

Oh yes. Sour cream goes great in Mac and cheese!

[@graciesmom1477]

How about making tomato gravy and biscuits. It's one of my favorites.

Tamara Kennedy you going to pretend she wasn’t being racist

[@tomsaaristo6294]

I didn't grow up with macaroni & cheese and have always wanted a TRUE Southern mac n' cheese recipe and now I finally feel like I know all the 'trade secrets', thank you so much!

[@sandyharris1527]
