Let's Make It

 

1.  Place macaroni in a medium saucepan or skillet and add just enough cold water to cover.

2.  Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.

3.  Continue to cook, stirring, until water has been almost completely absorbed and macaroni is just shy of al dente, about 6 minutes.

4.  Immediately add milk and bring to a boil. Add cheese.

5.  Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring continuously, until cheese is melted and liquid has reduced to a creamy sauce,  about 2 minutes longer.

6.  Season to taste with more salt and serve immediately.
