Can one pot and evaporated milk create the perfect macaroni and cheese?
In short: This video demonstrates a simple, one-pot oven method for making macaroni and cheese. By using evaporated milk and the natural starches from the pasta, you can achieve a remarkably creamy sauce with minimal cleanup.
The process begins by frying bacon, onion, and garlic in a Dutch oven. Once the base is prepared, water, milk, evaporated milk, horseradish, mustard, salt, and pepper are added along with the pasta. The dish is baked at 180ºC (350ºF) for 30 minutes, with a mid-way stir to ensure the liquid is absorbed.
To finish, butter is stirred into the pasta, followed by a slow addition of grated cheese to build the final consistency. This technique leverages the pasta's own starches to create a rich, velvety texture.
