Macaroni Gratin with Swiss and Parmesan

Macaroni folded into a cheese-enriched milk sauce and baked until golden.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Boil macaroni in the measured salted water until cooked but still firm; drain thoroughly. The book’s 45-minute boil is not a reliable default for modern pasta.

  2. Step 2

    In a saucepan, coat macaroni with butter and flour. Add hot milk gradually, then season with the finishing salt, cayenne and nutmeg.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in about 28 g Swiss cheese and 28 g Parmesan until evenly mixed. Transfer to a baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining estimated 10 g Swiss cheese.

  4. Step 4

    Bake at an estimated 190°C for about fifteen minutes until hot and lightly golden. Serve without other garnish.
