The creamy mac and cheese recipe is perfect for both weeknight dinners and Thanksgiving, featuring a cheese sauce made without a roux, ensuring ease of preparation.
By opting for block American cheese, you'll achieve a smooth melting quality that is crucial for this macaroni and cheese. It's recommended to avoid pre-shredded cheese, as it can lead to a less desirable texture in the final dish.
For a beautiful color in your mac and cheese, a pinch of turmeric is added, not for flavor but to enhance the dish's visual appeal alongside paprika.
The recipe minimizes oven time by allowing much of the cooking to occur on the stovetop, and finishes with a quick bake for that desired cheesy crust at the top.
