Ingredients:
Instructions:
Cook pasta according to package directions (do not overcook); drain and set aside. Heat 1 quart of cream in heavy pot over medium heat until small bubbles form around the edges. Be careful not to scorch the bottom. Add Gouda, Parmigiano-Reggiano and one cup of the cheddar cheese. Lower heat and stir until well-blended and melted. Add pasta and stir to mix well. Add white pepper to taste. Do not add salt as the cheeses are very salty. Add remaining cream if needed. Spoon macaroni into ramekins. Top with remaining cheddar cheese and sprinkle Panko on top of the cheddar cheese. Place in a 350° oven for a few minutes to toast the Panko and heat through.
Note: This is a favorite side for “adult-only” meals at Crier Creek.
