When H&H was still around, mac and cheese and a glass of milk was my favorite lunch. The mac and cheese was 25 cents and the milk 5. I'm definitely going to try this recipe to check out if it's as good.
If memory serves, you definitely need to use a ridged tube macaroni. The smooth kind will not work.
This was the first macaroni and cheese I ever made at home ...memories of going to the x-mas show at Rockefeller Center with my Mom, and stopping at Horn and Hardware first to have some! Wow...that was a long time ago!
The H & H original recipe calls for ridged ziti noodles, not elbows.
They used a larger pasta than elbow.
