You can then put them into gallon freezer bags if you want additional protection against freezer burn, but it's never been a problem for me.Wandering Chopstickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703018765718062460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-88167090684211930312010-09-17T10:16:27.145-07:002010-09-17T10:16:27.145-07:00This is delicious!

Let it simmer just a bit longer?

The bechamel texture was somewhat grainy so the resulting mac and cheese tasted like cheesy mashed potatoes.
