The macaroni cheese thread

[Firky]

I used to like to eat this cold right out of the tin after a night out.

*a heartbroken sigh*

 

[Firky]

There's a distinct lack of bacon, Mr B.

I'm going to do my own version of posh macaroni cheese, so have just been to Waitrose and everything. Bought Mountain Comte A.O.P., some portobello mushrooms and double cream to put in the sauce, and will top it with halved cherry tomatoes.

Mrs R cooked it while I was moving furniture, was bloody lovely.

My home made macaroni cheese half an hour ago:

It looked more appetising in the flesh.

I was too hungry to bother with it, that takes an extra five minutes.

Tbh, it looks a bit lacking in the cheese sauce department. Macaroni cheese is meant to stick together more than that. That's just pasta with traces of some sort of sauce.

 

[Biddlybee]

it needs some time in the oven (after you've picked out the sweetcorn).

 

[Orang Utan]

it's the criminally overlooked scab that's the real crime here

I'm sorry, but the more I look at that picture, the more upset I am that you dared to call it macaroni cheese

It is actually a lot more saucy than it looks but the sauce is very similar in colour to the pasta, rendering it almost invisible. There is at least 3/4 pint of cheese sauce on that dish alone. Admittedly it is a variation of the traditional macaroni cheese method, but it's the closest I get to making one.

I don't generally claim that it is macaroni cheese, but pasta with cheese sauce.

It is awful in every respect, makes me angry just looking at it.

The damage has been done, Jackobi. The damage has been done.

 

[Orang Utan]

i feel traumatised

I don't think I could ever post again if I was Jackobi, certainly not in this forum. Every time I see the username 'Jackobi' I will have the image of the sickly looking sweetcorn swill

It's not my fault that the camera flash wasn't firing.

Your tagline is apposite, Jackobi.

You are just averse to the idea of sweetcorn in macaroni cheese, nothing with sweetcorn in would have been good enough.

The sweetcorn is only a fraction of the fail as well you know.

I've had many compliments on that dish. The only complaint being that I have given them too much and they can't eat it all, I forget that others do not eat as much as me.

Exactly.
