most people make mac and cheese wrong
here's how i make mine assuming im using the boxed variant as a base


do the usual, except when you put in the butter and milk, add:

>orange blossom honey
>aleppo pepper
>cracked black pepper
>pinch of himilayan salt
>touch of cinnamon
>paprika
>hemp seed

optional:
>cooked chicken pieces (i was still thawing so i couldnt add them this time)
>rose petals
>very, VERY small amount of garum/fish sauce

If starting from scratch I get strozzapreti pasta, dip them in an egg bath, and coat them with shaved parmesean before baking them at 250 degrees for a couple minutes. This will give each noodle a distinct crunch. I then get some american or aged swiss and melt it before adding the above to it and coating the encrusted pasta with the mixture

it infuriates me that you proclaim authority over making mac and cheese (a staple poverty dish) "correctly" and then substantiate it with a list of meme ingredients

it's like a reddit version of drowning it in hot sauce

also nobody wants crunchy noodles, that's not a thing

Looks awful considering all the effort put in. If you're going to try and fancy up something so simple it has to be better than that to be worth it.

the taste was worth it, but yeah it doesnt look that great

I'm sure it tastes fine man, that's not my point. That effort means it needs to be beyond great for that kind of dish.

the best Mac n cheese is simple the following are the only ingredients you need,

Sauce
>butter
>flour
>milk
>smoked gouda
>nutmeg
>pepper

Pasta
>water
>macaroni noodles
>salt

adding more makes you a pathetic nigger.

My spice blend is
>Dill
>Garlic Powder
>Dried Mustard
>Cracked Black Pepper
>Additional Shredded Cheese, mozzerella or cheddar
>Finely sliced spinach cooked with the heat of the pasta.

Its magical, and the spinach gives it some additional nutritional value.
