I realize these things are quite subjective, but I’ve always considered this baked tuna and noodle dish to be the king of the comfort food casseroles. Except for maybe mac and cheese, which is sort of in a category by itself. This is the simplest version I know, and probably my favorite.

As far as baked dishes go, tuna noodle casserole reigns supreme over mac and cheese. Because mac and cheese shouldn't be baked. Oh yeah, I went there. If you make mac and cheese from the box mix, you get something you can easily eat by digging into it with a fork or spoon and shoveling it into your mouth. Get it from the deli section of the grocery store, from the refrigerated section of the grocery store, from KFC, from Boston Market, and same story: put fork or spoon into the thing, take fork or spoon out of the thing, put it in your mouth. And then there's the "home baked" version. How do you eat that? You take your fork or spoon, turn it sideways, and use it to sort of pinch/cut a section of the mac and cheese so it separates from the mass and then you can eat it. And it will have a snappy chew from the hardened cheese and the edge-dried pasta. It often costs more to make something at home. And it certainly takes more time. Why would someone invest all that time and money into making something that is _worse_ than the cheaper, faster thing? I _hate_ the phrase "molecular gastronomy". Two hundred years ago, baking powder would have been considered "molecular gastronomy". Same with active dry yeast, so let's drop the labels. Trisodium citrate. It's cheap and you can get it on the internet. You dissolve a little bit in a small amount of liquid, you gently melt your favorite cheese into it, and wham: shiny, gooey, non-mealy "nacho" style cheese sauce, but instead of being made in a lab, it's literally just your favorite cheese in a mac-and-cheese-friendly consistency. You just can't get that kind of performance from a bechamel sauce. The bechamel approach still has its merits, though. The trisodium citrate approach is glossy, smooth, and a joy to eat, but it flows. It's doesn't "stack". It doesn't have structure. If you cook up some broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, etc. and spoon the shiny nacho concoction over it, it will be a pool _under_ the food by the time it reaches your guests, even if you make a relatively thick sauce. A bechamel based sauce stacks. If you need something to sit on top of the food, you can't beat the classic approach. On that note, you have to be careful in your selection of pasta for the trisodium citrate. You need something that can hold onto it with capillary action. Rotini or traditional-sized little macaroni are a good idea. They have enough surfaces close to other surfaces to hold onto a flowy cheese sauce. If you try do to this with large macaroni, or any other large tube like penne, rigatoni, or ziti, you're going to have a plate of naked pasta floating on a viscous pool of cheese sauce.

Chef John! I have been watching your videos since before the grilled cheese days. You’ve taught me everything I know about cooking and you’re one of the reasons my brother and I got so close as we were growing up. We are in our mid twenties now, and every time we make anything we add a shake of cayenne, we make our Béchamels with cold milk, we go around the outside, have our own freakishly small wooden spoon and do the ol’ tapa tapa. You’ve taught us so much but also made our love of food into a real skill, a skill which we use everyday to make our family dinner and something we bond over. Thank you for being such a huge influence in our life. My only unsatisfied food wish has been wanting to see you kitchen! A tour would be the best thing ever. Thank you for all you do sir, after all, it was food wishes that inspired each of our dishes.

Having these 3 ingredients foods as “staples” in your food pantry isn’t hoarding. People buying some extra food for themselves and their families for emergencies are intelligent as h3ll, because they are thinking ahead in case food ends up limited again in stores. All it takes is buying an extra bag of rice, noodles, peanut butter, etc, whenever you food shop. Just buy an extra bag of shelf stable foods monthly whenever you buy one in the store. Now toilet 🚽 🧻, paper towels, hand sanitizer, are the perfect examples of hoarding, because you do have other options if these aren’t available. The only problem with commercial hand sanitizer is the ingredients are toxic/very drying. By making your own sanitizer with Aloe Vera, Witch Hazel/91% alcohol/drops of essential oils, you have the same equivalent as regular sanitizer, but naturally healthier, limited ingredients. Moreover, America will forever be known as the “toilet paper capital” of the world by most people because of all the articles published by the media for these during this 🗺 event.

@@constitutionalrepublic1966 People keeping a small supply for 1-2 weeks of autonomy, consisting of regularly used non-perishables which are continuously used and restocked (first in, first out) even BEFORE this event started are smart. Others trying to stock up on a year's supply of canned good in last minute are generic hoarders and contributing to the non-availability of certain goods. In Switzerland, shelves with non-perishables were empty even if there was neither a shortage nor a lockdown, but because staff could not keep up with restocking as fast as shelves were emptied. It was absolute madness. Now that we're slowly getting back to normal, those once highly sought after items like flour, sugar, toilet paper and canned beans are on sale with significant reductions. I consider hand sanitizer and toilet paper as easily replaceable by soap and water. In fact, soap and water is even more effective at destroying CoV than hand sanitizer.

Baked (burnt) to perfection, placed in the center of the table w/4 sporks jammed in (she hated doing dishes), nonetheless enjoyed by all of us bratty kids. Ahhh, memories XD

The other big brand didn’t taste good but it could have been an off batch. And treat your kitty to the juice. Heck maybe combine the juice with milk adjusted accordingly and put it in the roux. . We never used to make it with cheese though. Everything these days seems to require grated Parmesan.

Tuna Noodle Casserole was my favorite dish growing up. I would ask our dad every year to make it on my birthday. This recipe came in perfect timing- my birthday is coming up in June so I’ll be making this version for the family, and, I have about two weeks to figure out how to veganize my portion. I’ll most likely sauté some shredded shiitake or trumpet mushrooms in vegan butter and Old Bay Blackened Seasoning to place of the tuna. I usually add shredded seaweed (nori/seaweed sheets) when I make vegan chick pea ‘tuna’ salad, and though it’s not the same tuna flavor I love and miss, it does give mock seafood recipes a great seafood flavor. Thank you for sharing this recipe. It’s always nice to be reminded of childhood favorite things. Be well, stay kind and blessings to all ~

As a child, I came from a traditional Italian Family so I would of never eaten such a thing. But when we used to have our sleepovers back in the day, one of the moms loved having me over because I was the only person who LOVED her Famous Tuna Casserole! It seems the rest of the family had to eat it on a regular basis along with all the other casseroles. But it was new and fresh to me and this takes me back...I am going to make it in honor of Momma Carol!

About 10 days ago I was craving my mom's tuna noodle casserole, but she passed away in 1994 and I haven't had it since. Where was this video two weeks ago? I made one after consulting The University of KZfaq and made mine using ideas from several recipes. It was almost identical to yours, except I used a combo of American and Havarti cheeses and a can of cream of chicken and mushroom soup. I like mine a little creamier, so I added both milk and cream and baked it sans the crumbs. It turned out great! I'm going to make my next one identical to this one. Every time (and I mean EVERY TIME) I make one of your recipes, I get rave reviews. I always tell them where to find it and where it came from. I love that people love my cooking, but in the end they understand that it's Chef John's recipe. Thank you Chef John. You're keeping my wife and I well-fed with delishiousness.

In Minnesota, the King of Casseroles (or, as we natives call it: Hot Dish), is Tator Tot and Wild Rice Hot Dish. It usually calls for cream of mushroom soup, too, but I also make it with a roux base. Sometimes you just have to have the comfort food.

Aloha chef John I have come to know you from your website and Internet. I am in your tuna noodle casserole recipe. I’ve wanted to have this dish ever since that was a child and my mother refused to make it for us saying it was fattening and not healthy, she did not like me to say the least. So I have waited until I am 67 years old to have my own tuna noodle casserole and as much as I want! Luckily my husband loves my cooking too. Thank you for being here for us for whatever reasons people love you have a wonderful holiday. Aloha, Antoinette.

Not to insult The Chef of "You are the Cahuna Rock-and-Roll of Your Tuna-Noodle Casserole", but my first thought of the title of this video reminded me of my mid-70s college dorm life, where we had our choice of 3 or 4 college cafeterias that served slight variations of the same menu on any given day. Tuna Noodle casserole was a staple in the rotation. For me, a few shakes of Tabasco sauce on Tuna Casserole was plenty fine. Today, I might even riff on Chef John's preparation in memory of those days (although an oft-used herb of the era has clouded some memories). Cheers!

I make my sauce with a good amount of cut up sauteed mushrooms, also, as well as the sauteed chopped onions, and a little thyme. I use half and half, but don't add cheese in the sauce. Before I take it off the stove I add a splash of sherry or white wine in it. When I put it in the casserole dish I cut up chunks of cheddar cheese into it, so that you get melted cheese in your spoonfuls, too. I sprinkle some more cheese on top and then crumble up potatoe chips over the cheese. (I'm from Wisconsin, and a cheesehead, as you can probably tell.) Other than these things, ours is quite a bit alike. Oh, and no Worcester sauce either, but a touch of thyme is delish in it.

When I was a kid, my mother used to make some horrid version of this that involved cream of mushroom soup, peas and velveeta cheese. I hated it. She also had a knack for making it on a day when they had something just about as horrible in our school cafeteria and I wouldn't eat lunch that day. I would come home starving and be greeted with the smell of this casserole baking and honestly, I thought I would throw up. Needless to say, I did not ever eat that slop and spent many a dinner dining on a peanut butter sandwich instead of a hot meal. To this day I cannot eat anything with mushrooms or mushroom soup in it or peas. I have to thank you for this version that does NOT involve gray, canned cream of mushroom soup. In the past, I have put tuna in my mac and cheese, but this looks so much tastier. I will however, swap out the peas for carrots or broccoli. I am making this today and it will be the first time since about 1971 that I have eaten tuna noodle casserole.

@Carpe Diem HaHa. I am with your son. Something about mushrooms just really grosses me out. However, this recipe turned out really well! I was quite happy with the results. I will be keeping this recipe! My husband liked it quite a bit as well. For what it's worth, my husband hates mushrooms also and that goes back to his mother forcing him to eat cream of mushroom soup for his dinner, which then made him throw up. . He does however like peas, but not green beans. I love green beans but hate peas.My parents used to force me to eat them as well as cooked egg yolks. I am talking sitting at the table for hours until I did, so to this day I do not eat mushrooms, peas or hard cooked egg yolks. I know, I am very weird but sometimes those childhood experiences stay with you. LOL!!!!!
