I promise people just started using a roux for social media. My grandma made a custard with eggs and didn’t use all those seasonings like we frying chicken lol and it hit every time!

The beauty of cooking is that you can change, add, and take out whatever you want. Your recipes don't have to follow someone else's. This looks great, and I've had mac & cheese that was seasoned and had eggs... and it was good. Let's not discount others and remember, there are enough mouths to go around!

The egg in mac and cheese, makes it a lighter. Kinda like lasagna. 🥚🥚🥚yes to eggs.

If you want the traditional old school grand ma Mac n cheese. Use eggs. Otherwise it’s too dense. No fluff. Sometimes people overdo the cheese in Mac n cheese.

Well if I wanted store bought BOXED Mac and cheese, I’d buy it. So custard in my Mac it is over this way! But hey personal preferences🤷🏽‍♀️😂

I use shredded cheese and it comes out great to each his own. I have not had anyone say anything bad about it.GOD bless my mac and cheese!!

The thing is some of y'all just started making Mac & Cheese 3 to 10 years ago using the roux method, cooking flour on the stove with butter & milk, but the old school way is not with a roux which is called for eggs. The old school way is longer but it's better.

Just here to support another sister. There’s no argument here. She’s just sharing her recipe and her opinion. To each their own. I’m sure everyone has their own version on their recipe. Do what works for you. Or maybe be open minded to try new recipes.

Either way, let us just keep each other lifted in love and support.

May your holidays be filled with love, happiness and special memories.
Blessings to you all.

Not putting eggs in your Mac n cheese does not make yours better…it makes it your recipe. I like using eggs because it makes the dish lighter and not weighed down with all the cheeses— just my opinion!

On the Caribbean we make Macaroni Pie
It's Mac and cheese baked with eggs and we use evaporated milk, a little grated onion is part of the seasoning

[terrafitchett]

When I was growing up this is how my mom used to make mac & cheese except she uses flour instead of corn starch, & she uses part evaporated milk & part whole milk.

I like with or without eggs. I think eggs were used as a custard type binder because genuine cheese wasn't always available. But now cheese is abundant and melted cheese can be used as a binder. And I agree, seasoning mac and cheese with salt and pepper is enough. Sometimes I add a pinch of sugar to balance cheese flavors.

Girl, my favorite thing about Thanksgiving is the mac. This looks DIVINE. I have to make it. ❤

[iknowthatsright]

Definitely use eggs. Save the flour for cakes.

I ain’t never heard of flour, but both my grandmama and great grandmama put eggs in their Macaroni and Cheese and it was so good, it had all of their little hometown in South Carolina clutching their edges for dear life. Might not belong in YOUR recipe, but it belongs!

This is the new age way of making mac n cheese with a roux. And you don't need ten different cheeses to make a bom mac n cheese. Mama and grandma use to use that government cheese with condensed milk in the can and egg is used as a binder every body dont want their mac n cheese falling apart when they cut into it. It's more like a mac n cheese pie in my opinion. Its the bomb. She just revamped it and made it her own. But the old saying goes if ain't broke to try to fix it. ❤
