Method (preview)

1. 1

   Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan and stir in the flour.

2. 2

   Stir about for a while to cook the flour.

3. 3

   Add the milk little by little, stirring like crazy, to make like a white sauce.

4. 4

   Let it thicken. (Keep stirring.

5. 5

   You will get tired.

6. 6

   Persevere.) Add the cheese a little at a time, reserving a handful.

7. 7

   Add the mustard powder and test for seasoning - I like a lot of pepper in mine (seems to set off the cheese well).

8. 8

   When the sauce is thick and cheesy and goopy, dump in the drained macaroni and mix it all well together.

9. 9

   Pour into a buttered casserole dish, sprinkle a thick layer of grated cheese over the top and bake in a hottish oven for half and hour or so.

10. 10

    Brown the cheese under the grill if it's not goldeny when you take it out.

11. 11

    Crispy bacon is good, also smoked jalapeno powder...
