Amazon.com Review Featured Recipes from The Mac and Cheese Cookbook From Booklist HOMEROOM, a popular restaurant in Oakland, California, specializes in just one dish: macaroni and cheese. This isn’t your gummy, salty, run-of-the-mill school cafeteria mac and cheese. Befitting its San Francisco Bay address, HOMEROOM daily offers dozens of variations on its signature dish, some with multiple cheeses, some with meats, some with seafood, some with vegetables. Each has a foundation of béchamel sauce, which serves to bind the pasta with cheeses and other ingredients. Arevalo and Wade address the perennial conflict between partisans of crunchy-topped vs. creamy-throughout by offering both alternatives. An appropriate wine or beer recommendation for each version also appears. For closers, HOMEROOM offers a dessert version of macaroni and cheese made with fruit and nuts, basically a riff on a traditional Jewish noodle kugel. Other desserts include carrot cake, buckeyes, and a homemade version of Oreo cookies. --Mark Knoblauch Review ‘‘Anyone who paves the way for me to have mac + cheese for breakfast understands my heart’s desires. Allison and Erin really know their way around a creamy sauce and amazing cheese combinations. These recipes are fun and majorly comforting—I’m so excited to add this book to my cookbook family.’’ -Joy Wilson, author of Joy the Baker Cookbook ‘‘I remember when Allison and Erin first came to me to ask for advice on opening their own restaurant. I knew they had what it takes: intelligence, natural grace, and sincere hospitality. The beauty of their food is the unexpected mac and cheese flavors that pop every time.
