There is nothing better than ending a long week and sports filled weekend with a comfort food filled Sunday dinner. I have always tried to make Sunday supper a family filled event as opposed to just dinner. It’s a time we can reconnect and visit with grandparents and uncles/aunts. However, this week was a really special Sunday supper because it was just me and my girlfriends. The kids were out for the day so it was just me and my girls. Everyone brought something but I was more than happy to supply the main part of the meal. Here’s what I made…

  1. To hard-boil the eggs, place them in a sauce pan and cover them with cold water. Bring them up to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Turn the heat off and let them sit in the hot water for another five minutes. When the 5 minutes are up, rinse them under cold water.
  2. Slice the hard-boiled eggs in half and add the yolks to a mixing bowl.

The Most Incredible Mac 'n Cheese EVER

Ingredients

  • 6 Tbsp of butter plus some for greasing dish
  • 1/4 cup sliced onion
  • 1 Tbsp chopped shallot
  • 1 clove garlic smashed
  • 1/2 tsp peppercorns
  • 3 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 3 cups half and half
  • 2 Tbsp flour
  • 1 1/2 cups grated sharp white cheddar
  • 1/2 cup grated fontina
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 1/2 lb rigatoni
  • 1 cup panko
  • 1 Tbsp chives chopped
  • 1 Tbsp parsley chopped

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 1 Tbsp of butter. Add the onion, shallot and garlic clove. Cook until onion softens, about 4 minutes. Add the peppercorns, heavy cream and half and half. Turn heat down to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
  2. Remove the cream from the heat and strain into a bowl; discard the vegetables. Put cream mixture aside.
  3. In the same saucepan, melt another 3 Tbsp of butter. Add the flour and mix until it turns a golden color. Slowly add the cream mixture to the flour, whisking continuously. Continue to cook until it thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove it from the heat and add the cheddar, fontina and Parmesan cheese. Season to taste.
  4. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease the baking dish with more butter...I know its a lot but you've already committed at this point and I promise you, it is worth it!
  5. Cook the rigatoni until al dente. When draining, reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water. Move the pasta into the greased baking dish.
  6. In a saute pan, Melt 2 Tbsp of butter. Add the panko and saute until golden. Remove it from the heat and add the chives and parsley.
  7. Pour the sauce over the pasta and mix until the cheese has filled each and every rigatoni tube. If the sauce is too thick, add the reserved pasta water.
  8. Top the pasta with the panko mixture. Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
