Grilled Mac and Cheese Sandwich
Comfort food in United States. Comfort food anywhere it travels. The technique is the grill. Do it patiently and the dish does the rest.
Method
1. Make the mac and cheese 1.
2. Bring a medium saucepan of generously salted water (you want it to taste like seawater) to a boil.
3. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes, or according to the package directions.
4. The pasta should be tender but still chewy.
5. 2.
6. While the pasta is cooking, in a small bowl, whisk together the flour, mustard powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Salt the water like the sea, never rinse the pasta, and finish the sauce in the pan with a splash of the cooking liquid.
