We take our Macaroni and cheese very seriously around these parts. Saturday’s heaping forkful featured huge pieces of Fresh lobster! (Thank you Milford fish market) I think everybody has their favorite way of making macaroni and cheese mine used to be with a Rue sauce but I found that I wasn’t always successful with the consistency. Often to thick.
Hands down - my favorite meal. Unless you put it up against Indian. Then I have to take Indian. Ive tried making Indian dishes at home, just not the same. Such a let down. So, the first of our family’s two pasta “sauces” - also our traditional Christmas day meal. (Biscuits and gravy in the morning (hello abbey), spaghetti sauce in the afternoon) We alternate yearly between my mother’s meatsauce and Harry’s fathers sauce and meatballs. Everyone has there own way of making eggplant. I use vegetable oil for frying, eggs and Italian breadcrumbs. Simple, no fuss. Always comes out nice and crispy!
