I was shocked to learn today that there are people (particularly American people) who don’t know what Macaroni and Cheese is.  In case you’ve never heard of this wonderful dish, here is a recipe for Macaroni and Cheese from Southern Living just in time for Thanksgiving.

Ingredients
 2 cups  milk   $
 2 tablespoons  butter   $
 2 tablespoons  all-purpose flour   $
 1/2 teaspoon  salt   $
 1/4 teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper   $
 1   (10-oz.) block extra sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded   $
 1/4 teaspoon  ground red pepper (optional)   
 1/2   (16-oz.) package elbow macaroni, cooked   
Preparation
1. WHISK FLOUR INTO BUTTER
Preheat oven to 400°. Microwave milk at HIGH for 1 1/2 minutes. Melt  butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-low heat; whisk in  flour until smooth. Cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute.
2. WHISK IN WARM MILK
Gradually whisk in warm milk, and cook, whisking constantly, 5 minutes or until thickened.
3. WHISK IN CHEESE
Whisk in salt, black pepper, 1 cup shredded cheese, and, if desired,  red pepper until smooth; stir in pasta. Spoon pasta mixture into a  lightly greased 2-qt. baking dish; top with remaining cheese. Bake at  400° for 20 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
