Top 5 macaroni cheese recipes. 3-Cheese Macaroni and Cheese Recipe : The 12-Hour Bolognese | A Tiger in the Kitchen. I used to think Martha Stewart was high maintenance — but that was before I encountered Heston Blumenthal. Yes, the man — chef/owner of the three Michelin-star Fat Duck in Bray, U.K. — is a molecular gastronomy genius responsible for tongue-boggling dishes like powdered anjou pigeon and scrambled egg and bacon ice-cream. But let’s take something like, say, bolognese, one of the most basic dishes in classic Italian cooking. It should be fairly easy to make … well, except that this is Blumenthal we’re talking about. His bolognese recipe includes this instruction: “Cook for at least six hours.” And this would be taking place after a good two hours or so of cooking and prep work. By the time my Blumenthal bolognese was done, it was 4:30 a.m. and the ragu had taken a total of 12 hours to make.

But then I had my first spoonful of the ragu, a rich and muscular concoction that was beefy and hefty but also so, so, so sweet. It was, in short, a joy to eat. Was it worth it? Would I do it again? Heston Blumenthal’s Perfect Spaghetti Bolognese « Kok Robin. As much as I loved to watch Heston Blumenthal in Search of Perfection, I didn’t really feel like trying any of his recipes.

Maybe because I’m not British and I just don’t care about bangers & mash, fish & chips or chicken tikka masala. Or because I don’t want to go through so much trouble creating something that will still taste like something familiar, something not so exciting. I want to try new things, new combinations and new ingredients. But I wanted to try at least one of his recipes.

And the result? I tried to follow the recipe to the letter, but I have to admit I’ve changed the proportion between meat and vegetable.

Luxury mac 'n' cheese pots. You know how sometimes everybody likes something… except you? I remember that at school everyone like liquorice… except me. How I wished I could also buy those long black ropes of liquorice at the corner cafe and chew contentedly all afternoon… but sadly it was not to be. Satan’s own shoelaces, if you ask me. Or, more recently, how everybody loved Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code.

Me? I thought it was a fun plot (done before and better in The Name of the Rose, though) peopled by the most ridiculously two-dimensional characters, and a thoroughly annoying, breathless and italics-laden writing style Mac ‘n’ cheese is another example – most people get a wistful look in their eyes at the mere mention of the dish, thinking back fondly to a warm, comforting nursery dish. Well, sadly, that’s not the case. So suffice to say that when the BBC Olive Magazine asked me earlier this year to test a recipe for them, my heart sank when I heard the recipe was to be mac ‘n’ cheese. Ingredients: 30 g butter.
