German Macaroni (Deutsche Makaroni)

Cooking the German Way, p. 156

8 oz. broad noodles

2 eggs

½ pint milk

2 tablespoons sour cream

4 oz. grated Parmesan or other dry cheese of good flavor

2 oz. butter

Salt

Boil the noodles in salted water until soft. Drain well. Butter a shallow dish generously. Beat the eggs with the milk and sour cream; pour into a saucepan and stir the noodles with the rest of the butter. Gently stir in the cheese and cook together until thickened.

This kind of cheese was cheaper and seemed easier to use.


Dish up and scatter a little more cheese over and just melt the cheese in the oven for a few minutes.

So melty!

(I hope that chickpea penne counts as "broad noodles.")

My Rating: 3/5 "This isn't much for in-your-face flavor, but the creaminess is pleasant and comforting. I'm not sure why it's called "German Macaroni" since it doesn't call for macaroni noodles. I guess it's an analogy to get its audience to try something new."
