This is my favorite mac and cheese recipe!.

Mac and Cheese
1 T butter
1 T all purpose flour
1 shallot, minced
1 cup milk, warmed (I use 2%)
1 bay leaf
10 whole white peppercorns (You can also substitute with white ground pepper)
2 whole cloves
1 sprig fresh thyme
S & P tt
Heat a saucepan over medium low heat!. Add butter and swirl to coat!. Be careful butter doesn’t brown!. Add shallots and sauté until tender, 1 – 2 minutes!. Add flour and whisk to combine!. Cook for 1 – 2 minutes to cook off flour taste!. Slowly add milk, whisking constantly!. Add bay leaf, peppercorns, cloves and thyme and simmer on low for about 10 minutes to combine flavors!. Strain, taste and adjust seasonings!.
Bechamel has many uses!. I used it for macaroni and cheese!. For macaroni and cheese, I doubled this recipe and added about 3 cups of cheese!. I like to use parmesean, white cheddar and manchego, but you can choose other cheeses!. Then I add desired amount of macaroni or other type of pasta!. I bake it at 350 degrees with cooked noodles until the cheese on top starts to bubble!.
