hey y'all welcome to my youtube channel
0:02
I'm back in the kitchen to share with
0:06
y'all some easy easy recipes but yet
0:09
delicious recipes so you know one of the
0:12
most talked-about foods that we serve at
0:16
the legian Suns and Paula Dean's family
0:19
kitchen restaurants is a macaroni and
0:22
cheese and they lap up that macaroni and
0:34
cheese I think I think babies are born
0:36
with a pasta gene so I'm gonna share
0:39
with y'all the recipe that we use at the
0:41
restaurant and I warn you this is this
0:44
makes a lot if I were preparing it for
0:48
my family
0:49
I would probably cut it in two but it
0:52
calls for four cups of cooked macaroni
0:55
so you would start with 2 cups raw so
0:59
this is 4 cups and I'm gonna add our
1:02
butter because our macaroni is warm and
1:06
it will help melt that butter so this is
1:10
real real real important when you're
1:14
making macaroni and cheese you know they
1:17
have taught us to cook pasta al dente
1:20
well personally I'm not a fan of el
1:23
dente pasta but when you're making this
1:26
macaroni and cheese if you cook these
1:29
elbow macaroni stew el dente the liquid
1:34
in your dish is gonna soak up very very
1:38
fast because those noodles are gonna try
1:42
to complete their cooking process so
1:45
they're gonna drink up any liquid you
1:48
would have and you're gonna have a pan
1:49
of dry macaroni and cheese all right so
1:52
I'll put my butter in there and let it
1:54
melt so I'm gonna be adding eggs in in
1:59
southern macaroni and cheese
2:01
you know we add eggs because we want it
2:03
to bake up like a custard you know
2:06
and to me this is a secret to making
2:12
good macaroni and cheese and that's
2:14
evaporated milk
2:16
I've got regular milk out here but I'm
2:18
gonna use my evaporated milk and I say
2:22
that's probably a cup which I'll
2:24
probably have to finish off with some
2:29
regular milk cheeses
2:32
you know I say do whatever cheese's
2:35
makes you happy when it's Velveeta or
2:38
cheddar or white American I have fallen
2:41
in love with monster cheese so I am
2:46
gonna just take my monster that sounds
2:50
funny take my monster like my monster
2:55
all right so I'm gonna take this and I'm
2:58
just gonna cut this in small pieces and
3:04
then that will have an opportunity to
3:07
just melt all through this macaroni and
3:10
cheese so I like to putting some in big
3:12
chunks and the other cheese I've got is
3:18
just let let me check and make sure I
3:21
don't wanna tell your story it's just
3:23
sharp cheddar so I'm gonna put that in
3:28
there I may save a little bit maybe for
3:32
the top and because you don't want to
3:35
top your macaroni and cheese with your
3:38
with the topping when you put it in the
3:42
oven because it cheese will get hard and
3:44
overcooked so we're not gonna do that
3:49
all right now I'm gonna add three before
3:52
I do that I'm gonna see if this needs
3:54
more salt which it good so I'm gonna add
4:03
a little salt but you have to be careful
4:05
then your salt because um to me cheese
4:10
is salty so that's three beaten eggs
4:18
Teresa do such a good job getting
4:20
everything prepped for me all right so
4:26
I'm fixing to add Oh add the rest of
4:30
that cheese cuz I showed you like
4:32
choosing macaroni and cheese
4:34
the secret to me to our fabulous
4:38
macaroni and cheese is this ingredient
4:41
right here and that sound will cream now
4:46
what cream will fix almost anything
4:48
y'all it's right up there with butter
4:53
and mayonnaise and cheese all right so
5:00
this is looking good it's looking so
5:04
good you know what some cream cheese
5:08
would be good added to this to you to me
5:13
you just can't get enough cheese's all
5:16
right so now I'm gonna come back because
5:18
that didn't you know me quite enough
5:21
milk so I'm just gonna finish this off
5:24
with a whole whole milk
5:29
and you can do all this ahead of time
5:31
and stick this in your refrigerator hush
5:37
oh my gosh I won't be able to be with
5:53
them but they gonna go into the pool
5:55
so those jumps are going to race because
5:57
they see a child out there so please
6:00
excuse the the ruckus alright so this
6:04
looks good you free me y'all good and
6:09
creamy so I'm gonna spray my dish I'm
6:12
gonna put this in the oven at 350 about
6:16
halfway through I'm gonna take it and
6:18
I'm gonna stir it and I'll be adding
6:22
extra cheese on top at the last few
6:26
minutes of cooking so when this is done
6:29
I'll be back we'll finish it up you love

7:00
up at 20 minutes put it back in for
7:03
another 20 minutes and then I added the
7:06
cheese about three or four minutes ago
7:08
