So, do you cover baked mac and cheese with foil? For most of us, the answer is a yes-then-no dance. Start covered for creamy perfection, then uncover for the crunch that makes life worth living. Unless you’re a purist who wants all steam or all crackle—then you do you, champ.
Just remember: mac and cheese is never the enemy. It’s the friend that always shows up with cheese and carbs. And even if you mess up the foil game, it’s still better than a salad. Always better than a salad.
Now go forth and bake. Just don’t forget the extra cheese. Or the wine. And maybe a bib.
