Make a creamy macaroni and cheese with sweet summer corn and crispy bacon. This TODAY Food recipe is courtesy of Elena Besser.
in all its forms — from the quick-cooking kind that comes in a blue box at the grocery store to the ultra-gooey, baked homemade kind your parents probably make on special occasions. But we also know that this childhood staple can feel kind of heavy on its own as a main dish, particularly during the summer months.
Elena Besser puts a summery twist on the classic, which embraces the bounty of juicy in-season corn to create a creamy, cheesy sauce. But this mac and cheese still has plenty of the rich, savory flavor that you know and love, thanks to the addition of fatty bacon. The natural starchiness of sweet corn sets up the base of the sauce, without the need to use milk and create a bechamel. After adding in two kinds of cheese, extra-sharp cheddar and nutty Parmesan, the pasta is topped with crispy bacon and fresh chives for an unbeatable summer dinner. This is one that will get on the table fast and thrill your family, all without breaking the bank.Technique Tip
: Add the cheese one cup at a time, stirring continuously to prevent the sauce from breaking. Adding reserved cobs to the water imparts a subtle corn flavor into the pasta.: Bacon can be swapped for pancetta and fresh corn can be swapped for frozen. Shallots can be swapped for onions or leeks in a pinch. Out of elbow macaroni? Swap it for a pound of your favorite pasta.
