I am so pleased to introduce my very special sister Trenice, who will be a feature over the next few days to share some priceless tips to make your holiday meal extra special.
First stop...
Mac and Cheese
TIP 1#: When boiling your Pasta for your Mac and Cheese, do NOT follow the instruction on the back of the Pasta Box. If you do, you WILL have mushy PASTA in your Mac and Cheese. If the BOX says cook for 8 - 10 Minutes, only cook for 4 - 5 Minutes. REMEMBER your Pasta will continue to cook once you add ALL your ingredients together and bake in the oven.
TIP 2#: Velveeta Cheese sodium is OUT the DOOR, and it changes the texture of your Mac and Cheese, puts you in mind of Stove Top Mac and Cheese. STAY AWAY from the Velveeta, especially if you or your guest have Blood Pressure issues. Colby, Jack, Cheddar (sharp and mild), American (NOT the SLICES!!!)
TIP 3#: If you USE evaporated milk, use either half and half, heavy cream, or milk along with the evaporated milk. Just using evaporated milk alone will leave your Mac and Cheese somewhat dry and dense.
