I’ve been experimenting with mac & cheese recipes and methods. My favorite so far is Pressure Cooker Macaroni and Cheese.
But I started wondering if this could be made on top of the stove. One of the things I like about the pressure cooker method is that it’s all done in one pot. It also uses real cheese and milk, but doesn’t require the making of a white sauce. (Not that making white sauce is hard, but sometimes you want to go even easier that that.)
What I found out is that you can use the same recipe as the pressure cooker version to make this dish on the stove. I didn’t think it was quite as creamy as the pressure cooker type, but it was still very good. And my stove takes forever for a pot of water to boil, so I still think the pressure cooker is faster.
If you don’t have a pressure cooker though, this is definitely worth a try. [Read more…] about One Pot Stove-Top Macaroni and Cheese
