MAC AND CHEESE AND PEAS
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season generously with salt. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. When you have 1 minute of cook time left, pour in the frozen peas. Drain and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large high-sided 10-inch saute pan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk. Reduce to low heat, bring to a simmer and cook until it becomes a thin gravy, about 5 minutes. Add the cream cheese and break up until smooth. Add the white pepper and ground mustard. Remove from the heat, add the bourbon if using and whisk to combine until fully incorporated. Stir in the Cheddar and American cheeses and cook until all the cheese is melted, 2 to 4 minutes. Taste and add salt as needed.
- Add the cooked pasta and peas to the cheese sauce and stir to thoroughly combine. Taste again and salt and pepper as needed before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish or eight 12-ounce ramekins.
- For the bechamel: Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring often, until just crisp, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the 3 1/2 cups milk, the parsley, peppercorns, crushed red pepper, bay leaf and nutmeg in another medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then remove from the heat and keep warm.
- When the bacon is crisp, remove it with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate, leaving 6 tablespoons of the bacon fat in the saucepan. If you have less than 6 tablespoons, make up the difference with the butter and heat over medium heat until melted. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until the mixture is doughy and smells a bit nutty, about 1 minute.
- Strain in the warm milk about a half cup at a time into the flour mixture and cook, whisking to incorporate after each addition. The bechamel should be smooth and velvety. If it's chunky or too thick, whisk in some more milk.
- For the mac 'n' cheese: Remove the bechamel from the heat and add all of the cheeses; whisk to combine. Fold in half of the bacon. Next, fold in the macaroni, then the peas. Transfer to the prepared baking dish or ramekins. If using ramekins, place them on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Combine the breadcrumbs with the remaining bacon pieces, the melted butter and a pinch each of salt and black pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the mac 'n' cheese and bake until the sauce is bubbly and the crust is browned on top, 30 to 45 minutes (depending on the baking vessel).
- Let rest for 10 minutes then serve.

TRUFFLE, PEA AND CHIVE MAC & CHEESE
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season liberally with kosher salt. Add the campanelle and cook according to the package directions. Drain the campanelle and spread onto a sheet tray. Drizzle with some olive oil and toss to combine to prevent the pasta from sticking. Set aside.
- Heat the 1/4 cup of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat in a small saute pan. Add the smashed garlic and thyme and swirl the pan to infuse the oil with the garlic flavor. Add the panko and toss to combine, making sure the breadcrumbs are completely coated in the olive oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the breadcrumbs are golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the breadcrumbs onto a plate lined with a paper towel and discard the smashed garlic and thyme. Set aside.
- Melt the remaining stick of butter over medium-high heat in a large, high-sided saute pan. Add the shallots and cook until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Add the flour and stir with a spatula to create a roux. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste. Add the nutmeg and stir for a few seconds to toast the nutmeg and release the fragrance. Add 2 cups of the milk and whisk to combine until smooth. Cook, whisking frequently, for 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in another 2 cups of the milk and bring to a gentle boil, making sure the mixture does not come to a full boil. Reduce the heat and cook on a very low simmer, whisking frequently, until the sauce is slightly thickened, 5 minutes. Add the Cheddar, whisk to combine until melted and season to taste with kosher salt. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, then turn off the heat. Fold in the frozen peas, cooked campanelle and the remaining 3 tablespoons of milk.
- Plate the mac and cheese and garnish with freshly grated black truffle and the sliced chives.
MACARONI AND CHEESE PEA SALAD
Made from boxed macaroni&cheese dinner. The cheese/macaroni mixture gives this a unique twist to typical macaroni salad. I've never made it from homemade cheese & macaroni, but I imagine it would work fine. Sometimes I use leftover macaroni & cheese dinner and adjust the rest of the ingredients accordingly. This is one of our quick and easy family favorites. Enjoy!!
