Mac & Cheese Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Noodles

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cavatappi noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Mornay Sauce

    In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 2 minutes until golden brown. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Cheeses

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in the cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan cheeses until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Combine Noodles and Sauce

    Add the cooked cavatappi noodles to the cheese sauce and stir until well coated.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Spoon the mac and cheese into serving bowls and garnish with fresh GUF micro-radishes. Serve immediately.
