"When you're in the mood for something warm and comforting, you can always rely on a bowlful of melty mac and cheese. This beloved family favorite is packed with rich, creamy deliciousness, and super easy to customize to your taste. It's a dish that feels wonderfully decadent, despite being simple enough to whip up on a weeknight. In the unlikely event that you have any leftovers, they make for a satisfying lunch the next day."
"These crispy bites aren't just for snacking; cheese puffs are also the secret weapon for enhancing your mac and cheese. This is a hack that British TV chef Nadiya Hussain loves to use, and it's the perfect way to pack concentrated salty, cheesy flavor into both the sauce and topping. To prep the cheese puffs, Hussain blends them up into a fine powder using a food processor."
Mac and cheese provides warm, comforting, customizable comfort food that works for weeknight dinners and leftover lunches. Celebrity chefs contribute techniques to upgrade homemade versions by enhancing umami, adjusting texture, and perfecting crispy toppings. One effective technique uses crushed cheese puffs blended into a powder and stirred into warm cheddar sauce to intensify salty, cheesy flavor. Adding yeast extract and Worcestershire sauce boosts savory depth. A topping made from breadcrumbs, more crushed cheese puffs, and shredded cheddar creates a bright, crispy finish when baked until the topping develops a vibrant orange color.
