Baked Mac and Cheese

Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit or or 205 Celsius

In a cold pan add the Béchamel, heavy cream, shallot, Siracha, dijon, and a pinch of salt to a sauce pan and put over medium heat, medium high if you are paying attention to it.

When it starts to bubble, mix everything, when it starts bubbling all over, take off heat and add the cheese.

Taste for salt, add some sriracha if it tastes too rich or theres no heat, add some more shallot if you don’t taste it at all, add some more cream if its overly thick or dry.

Add the cooked pasta and stir or toss to combine, pour into the baking dish thats sitting on a baking tray.

Cover the baking dish with a light covering of bread crumbs, then a thin layer of cheese, then another thin layer of breadcrumbs then crumble the butter onb top.

Bake until the edges of the baking dish are bubbling and the top is golden brown.
