Mac And Cheese With Sourdough Breadcrumbs Recipes

Steps:

• Breadcrumbs: Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and rosemary; saute 5 minutes. Mix in croutons. Cool; stir in parsley.
• Mac and cheese: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter 13x9x2" glass baking dish.
• Whisk flour, cayenne, and nutmeg in small bowl. Melt butter in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add flour mixture; stir 1 minute (do not brown). Gradually whisk in milk and bring to simmer. Cook until sauce thickens, 4-5 minutes. Whisk 2 cups of cheddar, 2 cups of Fontina, and 1/4 cup Pecorino Romano into sauce. Season generously with salt and pepper. Stir in pasta; remove from heat.
• Mix 1 cup cheddar, 1 cup Fontina, and 1/4 cup Pecorino Romano in small bowl.
• Layer half of pasta mixture, then cheese mixture in baking dish; repeat. Sprinkle with breadcrumb topping. Cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until topping is golden, 10-12 minutes. Top with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until macaroni is cooked through but still slightly firm, about 8 minutes. Drain well.
• Combine the cottage cheese, sour cream, butter, and cooked macaroni in a large baking dish. Stir in the Cheddar cheese. Arrange the tomatoes on top, then pour the tomato liquid over the casserole. Season with salt and black pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then mix the macaroni and cheese thoroughly. Continue to bake until lightly browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes more.
