Macaroni and Cheese

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350F (180C).

2. 2

   Boil the macaroni until just barely done in salted water.

3. 3

   Drain and toss with the butter in a large, ovenproof mixing bowl.

4. 4

   Mix the tabasco into the evaporated milk.

5. 5

   Reserving about 13 cup, stir the milk into the macaroni, then add 3/4 of the cheese, the eggs and the mustard.

6. 6

   When well combined, season to taste with salt and pepper and set the bowl in the oven.

7. 7

   Every five minutes, remove it briefly to stir in some of the reserved cheese, adding more evaporated milk as necessary to keep the mixture moist and smooth.

8. 8

   When all the cheese has been incorporated and the mixture is nicely hot and creamy (which should take 20 minutes all told), serve at once with a plate of toasted common crackers to crumble over.
