Baked Gouda Recipes

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter on a griddle over medium-high heat. Add bread and cook until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Set aside to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain macaroni and transfer to a large bowl.
• Place cooled toast in a resealable bag and slowly crush with the bottom of a saucepan or a rolling pin. Set bread crumbs aside.
• Mix Cheddar and Gouda cheeses together and divide into 4 equal piles.
• Melt 1/2 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
• While butter is melting, whisk 1 cup milk and cornstarch together in a bowl until cornstarch has dissolved. Add milk-cornstarch mixture to the melted butter. Gradually mix in remaining 1/2 cup milk and half-and-half. Cook, whisking continuously, until mixture thickens to the consistency of a milkshake, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 2 piles of cheese, one at a time, whisking after each addition until cheese has completely melted.
• Pour cheese sauce over cooked macaroni and mix to coat. Transfer 1/2 of the mac and cheese mixture to the reserved baking pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle 1 pile of cheese over top. Evenly distribute the rest of the mac and cheese mixture into the pan, sprinkle with remaining cheese, and top with reserved breadcrumbs.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Remove 4 dinner rolls and place on small cookie sheet.
• 2. With fingers smooth out perforated marks on dinner roll dough to form solid rectangle.
• 3. Remove casing from Gouda and place cheese in center of crescent roll dough.
• 4. Coat cheese with mustard and bring up all corners of dough to totally encase cheese, making sure all openings are sealed.
• 5. Brush top with beaten egg white and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• 6. May prepare to this point and hold several hours in the refrigerator.
• 7. When ready to serve, bake in preheated 375 oven for 30 minutes or until golden.
• 8. Allow to sit a few minutes before slicing into wedges.

Steps:

• PREHEAT the oven to 400°F.
• PLACE the potatoes directly on the middle oven rack and bake until knife tender, fluffy on the inside, and crispy on the outside, 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Turn the broiler to high.
• MEANWHILE, stir together 2 cups of the Gouda, the mayonnaise, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, green onion, and paprika in a large bowl.
• WHEN the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them open lengthwise, scoop out the fluffy insides, and carefully transfer them to the Gouda mixture. Fold gently to combine.
• LAY the empty potato skins on a rimmed baking sheet and evenly distribute the potato filling among the skins, so they are almost overflowing with filling. Top each potato with a generous sprinkling of the remaining shredded Gouda.
• BROIL the potatoes until the cheese is melty and gooey, about 4 minutes. Keep an eye on them so the cheese doesn't burn. Garnish with more green onions if desired. Serve immediately.
