Cooking Instructions

1

Cook the Macaroni

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the elbow macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2

Make the Cheese Sauce

In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 2 minutes until golden. Gradually whisk in the milk and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently.

3

Add Cheese and Seasoning

Once the sauce thickens, lower the heat and stir in the shredded Gouda cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

4

Combine Macaroni and Sauce

Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir until well combined.

5

Prepare for Baking

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the mac and cheese mixture to a greased baking dish and top with the diced Tasso ham.

6

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

7

Serve

Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your creamy Gouda mac n cheese with Tasso ham!
