I know it’s an extra step to shred it yourself, but trust me…it makes a tremendous difference in texture, consistency, and taste.
#CHORIZO MAC AND CHEESE WITH PANKO BREAD CRUMBS RECIPE MAC#
I never ever make mac and cheese with pre-grated cheese. Or if your food processor comes with a shredding blade, you can use that too! I’d recommend getting a durable box grater. More flavor: Freshly grated cheese packs more flavors.It helps the cheese melt better: Pre-shredded/bagged cheese usually comes with other ingredients, such as cornstarch, and this makes the cheese hard to melt.The cheese is creamier: This will make the cheese sauce ultra smooth.If there’s one thing you should remember about mac and cheese is the you need freshly grated cheese! Here’s why: It’s pretty amazing!Īnd in case you missed it, I also have an easy stovetop mac and cheese recipe, but I have to admit, this white cheddar mac and cheese has a special place in my heart. To make it even better, I use Gruyere cheese in addition to the White Cheddar.
This one is baked until bubbly and nicely melted, and topped with and herbed bread crumb topping. We love mac and cheese over here! I love experimenting variations of mac and cheese with different types of cheeses and toppings, and this White Cheddar Mac and Cheese is by far my favorite! Homemade mac and cheese is always the best, and this one is ultra cheesy and flavorful! Imagine smooth and bubbly baked White Cheddar Mac and Cheese with herbed bread crumb topping.
