Macaroni cheese has gone all weird?!

Question: Macaroni cheese has gone all weird?

I made some yesterday and had leftovers so I kept it in the fridge and heated it up today for dinner. However, the cheese sauce has gone all hard and isn't really a liquid sauce, more like a thick stodgy mush that is holding everything together. Why could this be? Could too much flour or cheese cause this?

Answers:

That is just what haoppens when you have a roux base and it sets.

Add a splash of milk and heat it back up gently and slowly. It will be just fine.

When reheating, add a little liquid and cover and bake in oven. This should soften things up a bit. I actually prefer cold leftover spaghetti, mac and cheese etc.!

It hasn't gone wierd, macaroni cheese is supposed to be like that after a day or so.

that sounds normal to me or its the cheese quality.
So many people swear by cracker barrel for homemade mac and cheese

You are supposed to cover it. If you did, it can b the ingredients you used xP

It is turning into the cheese monster
