#13 Home Alone (1990) & Mac and Cheese

Paul and Jeremy discuss kid politics on a global scale, the game theory of Sylvester Stallone and the sexual politics of donuts. All of these things are related to the seminal Christmas movie, Home Alone. Jeremy treats us to a delicious recipe for Home Invasion Mac And Cheese.

Home Invasion Mac & Cheese Recipe

Ingredients:

-All Purpose Flour Milk (1 carton)

-Butter (UNSALTED)

-Medium cheddar cheese (1 BRICK GRATED)

-Creamy cheese like Havarti (1 BRICK GRATED)

-Elbow Pasta

Boil some well-salted water Make a roux. Melt a stick of butter (or two) and slowly add flour, stirring constantly. Once the flour is incorporated with the butter add more. Do this a little bit at a time until it has a smooth paste-like consistency. If you add too much flour, just add more butter. Slowly add milk to the roux. One cup at a time. The goal is to make a smooth creamy sauce that has the consistency of gravy that is on the thin side. Once you get there start adding in the cheese one handful at a time. Incorporate each handful until the sauce has the consistency of a thick gravy and slightly more orange in colour. Reserve 1/3 of the grated cheese.

Add pepper and salt to taste. Boil the elbow pasta until it is just about half cooked. On the firm side of al dente. Strain off the water and rinse with cold water to slow the cooking process. Add the noodles to a tinfoil baking tray or any baking tray that makes you feel good. Mix in the creamy cheese sauce. Make sure the noodles are well mixed in. Top with the leftover cheese and place in a 400-degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the cheese on top is melted and the whole thing is bubbling. Broil for a few minutes to crisp up the cheese on top. Serve, but don’t eat it as you have to go deal with home invaders.
