Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Boil water in a large pot. Add salt and a smidge of olive oil for seasoning and to help prevent boil-over. Add both macaronis, and boil for 7-9 minutes, checking for doneness before pouring into colander.
  2. In a good saucier that you can whisk in, melt butter over medium high heat. Add flour and spices, whisking to coat particles in butter. Continue whisking and cook for about a minute or two, until it really comes together in a paste.
  3. Pour milk in a steady stream while whisking constantly. This will help prevent lumps from forming. Continue whisking until the mixture comes together (i.e., it isn't little clumps of paste in milk). Let this come to a boil and thicken, then turn heat down.
  4. Start adding the cheese in bit by bit, letting each addition melt before adding the next. Once all of the cheeses have been incorporated, taste to see if it needs salt or pepper (mine needed about a 1/2 t. salt and several grinds of pepper). Turn heat off.
  5. Add drained macaroni to cheese sauce and enjoy!
