Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour until mixture is smooth. Slowly add half-and-half, whisking as it is poured in. Stir until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Add Cheddar cheese, salt, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, pepper, and turmeric; whisk to combine.
- Drain macaroni and add to the cheese sauce. Stir until evenly coated.

HOW TO UPGRADE BOXED MACARONI AND CHEESE - ALLRECIPES
From allrecipes.com
- Boil it better. The package instructions generally recommend boiling the pasta in a pot of water, straining the macaroni, then dumping the cooked noodles back into the pot and stirring in milk, butter, or margarine and the cheese powder.
- Amp up the cheese. Whether you boil the pasta with the powder or not, definitely don't skip the extra cup of cheese. We love gouda, cheddar, Swiss, Parmesan, fontina, Monterey Jack, or Gruyère to boost the creamy factor and the flavor all at once.
- Undercook the noodles. Most package directions suggest cooking the pasta a bit longer than we'd prefer, which results in noodles on the mushy side. So cook it 1 to 2 minutes less, depending on how al dente you prefer your noodles.
- Dress up the dairy. This is one of the quickest and easiest ways to make any mac more decadent. Instead of skim, 1 percent, 2 percent or whole milk, trade in heavy cream or half-and-half.
- Sprinkle in some spices or sauces. A little kick can go a long way. Choose your own zesty adventure by adding a pinch of cayenne pepper, dry mustard powder, garlic powder, mushroom powder, or even a dash of hot sauce.
- Stir in some veggies. A dollop of canned pumpkin or pureed winter squash, a handful of halved cherry tomatoes, a scoop of roasted broccoli or cauliflower or even a scoop of frozen peas can perk up the boxed pasta in no time flat.
- Make it a mash-up meal. Take a little ingredient inspiration from some of your other favorite dinners, such as cheesesteak sandwiches or Caprese salad by adding the following mix-ins to taste.
