Caviar Mac and Cheese
Caviar Mac and CheeseMacaroni and Cheese is the ultimate comfort food — creamy, familiar, and unpretentious. In this version, a more complex cheese base combines American Muenster with an Italian-style blend, creating a warm, silky sauce where the pasta blends into the cheeses and the caviar pops on top. Ivory in color, it feels decidedly luxurious, and worlds away from the artificial orange mac of childhood.
The caviar here is Osetra from Bulgaria. It has firm, glossy beads with a clean, briny flavor and a subtle nuttiness. While it might seem extravagant to top mac and cheese with Osetra, the humble pasta actually provides the perfect canvas, letting each bead shine and turning a familiar comfort dish into a subtle, grown-up indulgence.
