Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 8 oz cubed mozzarella
  • 4 oz cubed smoked Gouda
  • 8 oz shredded sharp cheddar
  • 2 oz grated Parmesan
  • 1 lb elbow macaroni
Cook the elbow macaroni very al dente, drain and return it to the warm pot.
Southern-style mac and cheese with eggs
  • 12 oz evaporated milk
Stir the shredded cheddar into the pasta while adding the evaporated milk, which makes a creamy sauce and cools the pasta.
Mix in the cubes of mozzarella and Gouda, which should stay mostly unmelted so they form cheesy pockets.
  • 3 whole eggs
Once it is cool enough to put a finger in, whisk in the three eggs until smooth and incorporated.
Pour into the casserole and smooth it level.
  • 4 oz yellow and white cheddar
Grate the yellow and white cheddar, mix them and sprinkle evenly over the top with the Parmesan.
Bake at 375F for 45 minutes, then rest 10 minutes before serving.
