How sweet that Susan D. found you and that you have continued your mom's tradition. It is just lovely. I do like a hint of cayenne in my mac 'n cheese too.

we never take summer in Maine for granted, indeed! Wonder what your mother would have thought about this fog-socked summer... . ..

This sounds really good. I'm the only one in my family who will eat it, but maybe that's good? More leftovers for me.

I’ve got a post about Maine (and lobster) scheduled next month, but I completely forgot about this wonderful decadent dish from my Maine days. It’s not so easy to get lobster in Switzerland, but I can dream of it! I guess monkfish would be a decent substitution?

I think monkfish could be a good stand-in, Kathleen. I do hope you get a chance to try the real thing if you’re ever back in Maine! Looking forward to reading your post next month.

This is a picture perfect post. Swap out the cheese and adding the cayenne sounds like a fab idea. Although, I would use Aleppo pepper.
